Preview Days

As part of the Graduate School's efforts to recruit an exceptional pool of applicants, we will host annual in-person and virtual Preview Days. For the in-person Preview Days, we will bring a selected group of prospective PhD applicants from across different disciplines to New Haven to meet with Yale faculty and current graduate students, learn about the PhD application process, and explore Yale's campus. We will provide accommodations and meals and will cover the cost of travel within the U.S. and U.S. territories. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents. 

The next GSAS In-Person Preview Days will take place on September 29-October 1, 2025. Prospective PhD applicants in the following fields only are eligible to participate this year:

  • African American Studies
