Pre-college Students
- To apply, you must be in your junior or senior year of high school at the time of application. Rising juniors are not eligible to attend.
- You will be taking Yale College courses for credit in the company of college students. Yale does not offer pre-college courses. You will be held to the same academic standards as college students.
- Pre-college students living on campus are required to be full-time students; they must take two course credits or eight semester hours per session. Pre-college students are not permitted to register for more than two course credits per session. For details on the definition of full-time enrollment, see under "Academic Policies."
- Pre-college students living on campus who drop one or both of their courses will be required to withdraw from Yale Summer Session and leave campus within twenty-four hours of academic withdrawal.
- Pre-college students, including those who have just graduated from high school, must live on campus unless they live with their family within commuting distance of New Haven. They are expected to remain on campus except when participating in activities sponsored by Summer Session, or when they have written permission from a parent or guardian to leave campus for a specified period of time.
- All pre-college students are housed in one of the Yale dormitories, called residential colleges. Yale undergraduates serve as residential counselors and provide support and assistance. Pre-college students are subject to curfew and other special regulations.
- Pre-college students are not eligible to take any Yale Summer Session Study Abroad courses.
- Students who have been admitted to Yale as incoming freshmen for the fall of 2009 are considered pre-college students for the summer.
