Hello!
We would love to host you for shabbat and give you a taste of what observant/shomer-shabbat life at Yale is like! Please sign up here!
Please note, this shabbaton is intended for 12th graders considering applying to Yale. The programming will be designed with shomer shabbat students in mind, but all Jewish students are welcome!
If the shabbat of September 21 does not work for you and you're interested in visiting Yale on a weekday or shabbat at any point this year, fill out THIS FORM. We'd be happy to hear from you.
If you have questions not answered by the following FQA, email elisheva.feintuch@yale.edu.
Logistics:
Date: Shabbat of September 21, 2024.
Sleeping Accommodations: If you would like to be hosted, we will match you with a student that you can stay with for Shabbat! Once you get matched, your host will let you know if you need to bring a sleeping bag or anything. You can also be in touch with your host about coming earlier on Friday and maybe attending classes!
Meals: We will be eating all of our meals at the Slifka Center for Jewish Life (80 Wall St). Please indicate in the form if you have any allergies! All meals will be free for prospective students.
Davening: All minyanim meet at 80 Wall St. Mincha/Kabbalat Shabbat times will be announced closer to the date.
Transportation: Never been to New Haven? No worries! The Metro North and Amtrak stop is a 20 minute walk/5 minute uber from campus. Or you can find a ride with someone else coming up!
Events: If you would like to come early in the day on Friday, you can sign up for a tour through the Admissions Office
here.
We will get back to you a few days before with the name and number of your host!
