What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year at Yale University?

Alison

Yale is full of really down-to-earth people. There's kind of a stigma that comes along with the fact that it's an Ivy League school, but everyone here is really friendly and accessible.

Irene

I like the school very much.

Jennifer

It's not as intimidating as it seems, but you do have to work hard to keep up.

Monica

I wish I'd known how difficult classes would be - I only took four my freshman year and could have crammed in another one. There's so many great things to learn here!

Qiuyu

New Haven is really FUCKING cold.

Michael

I wish I would have had a better idea of the overall direction I wanted my life to take, as well as skills in setting goals and making plans to do so. I also wish I would have learned to write a good research paper and to study effectively and efficiently.

Zachary

More about Greek history.

Scott

Nothing. I loved learning the quirks of Yale on my own.

Jose

nothing

Jarrett

I wish I had known more about the east coast.
