Yale University NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT Yale University is a private Ivy League research university located in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded in 1701 in the Colony of Connecticut, the university is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States. Yale’s central campus in downtown New Haven covers 260 acres (1.1 km2). An additional 500 acres (2.0 km2) includes the Yale golf course and nature preserves in rural Connecticut and Horse Island. Yale is a medium-sized research university, most of whose students are in the graduate and professional schools. Undergraduates, or Yale College students, come from a variety of ethnic, national, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Of the 2010–2011 freshman class, 10% are non-U.S. citizens, while 54% went to public high schools. Half of all Yale undergraduates are women, more than 30% are minorities, and 8% are international students. Fifty-five per- cent attended public schools and 45% attended private, religious, or international schools. Yale has a system of 12 residential colleges, instituted in 1933 through a grant by Yale graduate Edward S. Harkness, who admired the college systems at Oxford and Cambridge. Each college has a Dean, Master, affiliated faculty, and resident fellows. Each college also features distinctive architecture, secluded courtyards, a commons room, meeting rooms/classrooms, and a dining hall; in addition some have chapels, libraries, squash courts, and more. The Boston Globe wrote that “if there’s one school that can lay claim to educating the nation’s top national leaders over the past three decades, it’s Yale.” Boston University BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS Boston University (most commonly referred to as BU) is a private research university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The university has more than 4,000 faculty members and 29,000 students, and is one of Boston's largest employers.

The main campus is situated along the Charles River in Boston's Fenway-Kenmore and Allston neighborhoods, while the Boston University Medical Campus is in Boston's South End neighborhood. BU also operates 75 study abroad programs in over 33 cities in over 20 countries and has in- ternship opportunities in 10 different countries (including the United States and abroad). In 2013, the university received a record-breaking 52,693 applica- tions to fill only 3,800 seats in the Class of 2017. This was the highest amount of applications received by any university in North America with 36 percent of applicants offered admission to the Class of 2017. The students offered acceptance come from the top 9 percent of their high school graduating class, have an A- average, scored an SAT Composite Average of 2016, and an ACT Average of 30.

In 2012, Emerging, a human resources company based in Paris, and Trendence, an institute that researches employer branding, personal marketing and recruitment, ranked Boston University 17th world- wide and 7th in the United States for employability of its graduates. Princeton University PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY Princeton has a long history. Founded in 1746 in Elizabeth as the College of New Jersey, it is one of the nine Colonial Colleges established before the American Revolution as well as the fourth chartered institution of higher education in the American colonies. The university moved to Newark in 1747, then to Princeton in 1756 and was renamed Princeton University in 1896. Princeton now provides undergraduate and graduate instruction in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering. It does not have schools of medicine, law, divinity, or business, but it does offer professional degrees through the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, the Princeton University School of Engineering and Applied Science, and the School of Architecture. The institute has ties with the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton Theological Seminary, and the Westminster Choir College of Rider University. Princeton has been associated with 35 Nobel Laureates, 17 National Medal of Science winners, and three National Humani- ties Medal winners. On a per-student basis, Princeton has the largest university endowment in the world. From 2001 to 2012, Princeton University was ranked either first or second among national universities by U.S. News & World Report (USNWR), holding the No. 1 spot for 10 of those 12 years. Princeton was ranked 7th among 300 Best World Universities in 2011 compiled by Human Resources & Labor Review (HRLR) on Measurements of World's Top 300 Universities Graduates' Performance .In the "America's Best Colleges" rankings by Forbes in 2012, Princeton University was ranked first among all national colleges and universi- ties. The Forbes ranking also takes into consideration national awards won by students and faculty, as well as number of alumni in the 2008 "Who's Who in America" register. Mit CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSSETTS The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a private research university located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. MIT has five schools and one college, containing a total of 32 academic departments, with a strong emphasis on scientific, engineering, and technological education and research.

For several years, U.S.News & World Report, the QS World University Rankings, and the Academic Ranking of World Universities have ranked MIT's School of Engineering first, as did the 1995 National Research Council report. In the same lists, MIT's strongest showings apart from in engineering are in computer science, the natural sciences, business, economics, linguistics, mathematics, and, to a lesser extent, political science and philosophy. The four-year, full-time undergraduate program maintains a balance between professional majors and those in the arts

To get a badge with your graduation picture on it, you must officially register prior to May 15—another excellent reason to quit procrastinating and get your buns in gear. Registration Momentum Continues to Build Last week was our biggest sign-up week, with 23 registrations.

  • Yale University Is a Private Ivy League Research University in New Haven, Connecticut
    Yale University is a private Ivy League research university in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded in 1701 as the "Collegiate School" by a group of Congregationalist ministers and chartered by the Colony of Connecticut, the university is the third-oldest institution of higher education in theUnited States. Yale is organized into twelve constituent schools: the original undergraduate college, the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, and ten professional schools. While the university is governed by the Yale Corporation, each school's faculty oversees its curriculum and degree programs. In addition to a central campus in downtown New Haven, the University owns athletic facilities in Western New Haven, including theYale Bowl, a campus in West Haven, Connecticut, and forest and nature preserves throughout New England. Yale has graduated many notable alumni, including five U.S. Presidents, 19 U.S. Supreme Court Justices, 13 living billionaires,[10] and many foreign heads of state. In addition, Yale has graduated hundreds of members of Congress and many high-level U.S. diplomats, including former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and current Secretary of State John Kerry. Fifty-two Nobel laureates have been affiliated with the University as students, faculty, or staff, and 230 Rhodes Scholars (the second most in the United States) graduated from the University.[11] Yale traces its beginnings to "An Act for Liberty to Erect a Collegiate School," passed by the General Court of the Colony of Connecticut on October 9, 1701, while meeting in New Haven. The Act was an effort to create an institution to train ministers and lay leadership for Connecticut.

Today it is one of the largest museums in the country, holding nearly 300,000 objects and welcoming visitors from around the world. The museum’s encyclopedic collection can engage every interest. Galleries showcase artworks from ancient times to the present, including vessels from Tang-dynasty China, early Italian paintings, textiles from Borneo, treasures of American art, masks from Western Africa, modern and contemporary art, ancient sculptures, masterworks by Degas, van Gogh, and Picasso, and more. Spanning one and a half city blocks, the museum features more than 4,000 works on display, multiple classrooms, a rooop terrace, a sculpture garden, and dramatic views of New Haven and the Yale campus.
