How well would students of color fit in at Yale in your opinion?

IMO students would fit in perfectly fine. When I visited I didn't get a sense that there was any discrimination or anything of any kind. Everyone was friendly and was talking to everyone. It's a small school so you have that 1 degree of separation from everyone. It just seemed very collaborative. I will say throughout my day there... I could probably count on 1 hand (and that's pushing it) the # of students I SAW that fall into that category.

Do you have a visit scheduled yet? I feel like Tuck would be one of the best schools to attend, but I will have one hell of a time convincing my gf to move to Hanover!

Yeah that would be a hard sell! So if you want to go into sales post-mba, that may be great practice haha. Actually that's one of the reasons I don't have a formal visit set up yet... because it's in Hanover. It's so far, I have to take off work for 2/3 days... take the Dartmouth bus from midtown manhattan, which won't be that bad because it's essentially 6 hours on a luxury charter bus with power outlets and free Wifi.

Just gotta figure out the logistics! But that's great that your GF is going to be following you to b-school!

@amazonviper you should definitely get up there and visit. would that be a long trek for you? try to go when classes are in session... not during the summer... oh and bring some cash with you because when you go to the cafeteria you have to pay even if you're on a tour ;-)

Did you call the admissions office to set up this visit? I only see the option to schedule for an interview and class visit online.

I emailed them to inquire about other activities occurring that day. I only did this because I was hesitant about taking a 7 hour bus trip and paying for a hotel for 2 nights just to visit a class. I'm not sure why they don't add in all of that other information in the online registration form because it's definitely helpful. But I confirmed that yes all of the rest of the stuff is going on.

Will you be visiting Tuck as well?

I am thinking about visiting.. It could be a pretty costly visit though since I will have to fly, rent a car, and get a hotel.
