Yale Traditions
Yale university description?

what is Yale university campus like? what facilities do they have?How about students life? rich or poor students? What kind of people go there? What degrees in which field is possible to gain? Any sense of community or traditions? etc.!

I strongly urge you to watch this video made by current and former students in conjunction with the admissions office. It gives a humorous and accurate description while also showcasing the extraordinary talents of Yale University students, as well as their commitment to their University for deciding to put together something like this.

Overall, I'd say that Yale provides an especially intimate undergraduate atmosphere similar to that of a liberal arts college, while also having the research accomplishments and faculty of a top international school (which you can't get as easily at a liberal arts college). The undergraduates are treated very well at Yale and are pushed to achieve their potential.

To answer your specific questions:
1) The campus is gothic in style, and is made up of several small residential college houses (more than a dorm--watch the video to see). The campus integrates with the city of New Haven a bit.
2) Yale has LOTS of facilities...research, sports, arts, etc! Check to see if your individual interests are met.
3) Students are very active and there are a lot of things to do outside of class. See the video for some examples. The residential colleges provide a unique experience.
4) Students are richer than average, but the school is wealthy and provides substantial aid, so there are a lot of poorer students as well. The school tries to recruit a diverse class, including socio-economically. You'll be supported if you're not rich. The rich kids aren't stuck-up, either, compared to most schools.
5) Check the website: http://www.yale.edu. There are many possible degrees and majors to choose.
6) Yale is an old school and has many traditions. The colleges have great community. There are also chances to get involved in New Haven community and politics.

Political Mailbag
Until 2008, Connecticut's 4th Congressional District was represented by strong independent-minded Republicans for more than 30 years. Principled and thoughtful leaders like Christopher Shays and Stewart McKinney worked tirelessly to protect the unique character and exceptional quality of life we and our families enjoy in Fairfield County.
