When it comes to Yale, I'm afraid many people will think of it for the first time. World-class universities are believed to be one of the most familiar American universities for many students and parents in China. As one of the "Ivy League" schools, Yale University is also famous. Basically, whenever Harvard is mentioned, Yale will be mentioned.

Yale University, founded in 170 1, is the third oldest university in American history. It is located in New Haven, Connecticut, with a cool and pleasant climate. Besides, it is very convenient to go to Boston from New Haven. There is a train to Boston every hour and it will arrive in a few hours.

However, some people say that New Haven is one of the most dangerous cities in America. However, in order to protect the safety of students, the school is still very careful. There is a red alarm button every 50 meters on the road of Yale campus. If you feel dangerous, you can press it at any time, and the police will check it in five minutes. If you go out to play too late at night, you can also take a free shuttle bus from Yale to send yourself back to the dormitory. Therefore, the campus may be the best haven for Yale students.

Yale not only provides the safest environment for students, but also provides the freest and highest-end academic atmosphere for students.

As the third undergraduate university in US news 2065 438+07, Yale University also attaches great importance to undergraduate education, and its undergraduate education resources are also in the forefront of the world. For example, the following library.

Yale has the second largest library in the American library system, with a collection of150,000 volumes. All collections are registered in the Orbis catalog system (Morris catalog system is used in law school collections), and interlibrary loan agreements have been established with major libraries in the United States, and the next-day delivery service has been implemented with individual university libraries, so that professors and students can quickly obtain the required information. Besides, many facilities in the school are called Eli.

Through the quick service connection, students can choose to pick up the books they need in any library and return them. These services are free for undergraduates and professors.

Moreover, Yale University is famous not only because of its educational level and resources or the name of "Ivy League", but also because of the management characteristics of "professor running the school". Because of this, Yale has more freedom of choice in academic atmosphere than other schools, and this freedom is also reflected in students' course selection.

Yale will require students to have depth and breadth in their studies. Depth is mainly reflected in students' own majors, and they should be proficient in their own majors. The breadth is reflected in students' learning in three fields (humanities and arts, natural sciences and social sciences) and three skills (writing, foreign languages and quantitative reasoning).

However, a strong academic atmosphere does not mean that all students are nerds.

The school also has an art museum and a gymnasium. Among them, the original works of Rembrandt, Monet, Van Gogh and Gauguin can be seen in the art museum. Payne of Yale University

Whitney Sports/Fitness Center is also the largest gymnasium in the world today, including swimming, simulated swimming pool, basketball hall, gym, fencing hall and other Olympic events, and these facilities are free for undergraduates.

Moreover, the school also has a wealth of extracurricular activities. Many students will have a rich after-school life after entering the university, and will never feel lonely and bored. With luck, maybe we can explore the secret of "skull".

However, it may be better to take a walk in the classical and romantic campus known as "the most beautiful urban campus in America" and experience the different design styles of the school in different periods.
