Special Academic Programs and Preregistration

This section is devoted to preregistration and application procedures that cannot wait until the start of the fall term. If you wish to enroll in any of the programs discussed in this section, you must preregister or apply on the Web as described below.

Before deciding to apply for a special academic program, read the material in chapters 4, 5, and 6 on advising, Yale’s academic philosophy, and the distributional requirements. By considering matters in a broader context, you will be better prepared to decide whether applying for any of these programs makes good sense for you.
