Yes, each person staying on campus will need to register for housing individually. Attendees staying on campus are required to reserve one bed for every adult
Online registration for the reunion will start on Wednesday, March 20. Mark your calendars!
To attend the reunion, you’ll need to purchase tickets online. The process is straightforward and can be completed through the booking link that we will send out on Wednesday.
If you're opting to stay on campus during the reunion, you'll have the opportunity to book housing simultaneously when purchasing your tickets. This option allows you to stay close to all the action and relive your college days!
On-campus housing options include suite-style accommodations for up to six people. Suites are configured for either four or six people, with all rooms being doubles. Keep in mind that if your group size is an odd number, you may be paired with another attendee outside of your chosen group.
If you would like to room with a group, before registering for reunion, one member of each housing group should submit this form to receive a unique code. Every suite member will need to include this code during their registration process. Please note, while Yale Housing will make their best effort to house everyone as requested, perfect suite arrangements are not guaranteed due to the unique rooming configurations in Silliman.
No, each person will register for housing separately and can choose their nights.
For the reunion, early bird tickets will be available at a discounted rate of $285 until April 20. Standard pricing is $319. This covers meals, drinks, and events for the weekend. Additionally, on-campus housing is available at a rate of $85 per person per night.
Absolutely. We do not want cost to be a barrier to attendance. Financial aid is available via confidential assistance to ensure that everyone can participate in our reunion festivities. If you are interested, please fill out this application before registering for your reunion.
- If you have any questions, please email us at reunions@yale.edu or reach out to us on Instagram (@yaleclassof2019).
Yes, beds are per person.
Hi 2019!
It's hard to believe that five years have already passed since we graduated. In some ways, it feels like things have barely changed - We still remember how Old Campus felt when the leaves fell and the sun set at 4pm, with the Harkness tower ringing in the background. In other ways, we have changed dramatically - we built new lives in new places and found new people. However, the one thing we have confirmed these past five years is the power of reconnecting in person. We cannot wait to see everyone on campus this summer for our very first reunion. Wenzels, Woads, and Whiffenpoofs await, so see you soon and spread the word!
Boola Boola,
Rebecca Yan & Michael Faucher
