Yale University

Location Overview

ALL USPA WORKSHOPS PLANNED TO BE HOSTED AT YALE UNIVERSITY WILL BE HELD VIRTUALLY IN SUMMER 2021

Yale can trace its roots back over 300 years. In the 1640s colonial clergymen led an effort to establish a liberal arts college in the tradition of European liberal education. In 1701 the Connecticut legislature adopted a charter which established the “Collegiate School” and in 1718 it was renamed Yale College when merchant Elihu Yale donated the proceeds from the sale of nine bales of goods, 417 books and a portrait of King George I.

Located just 90 minutes from New York City in New Haven, CT, this scenically beautiful campus with stellar academics and a renowned Drama Department can be your home away from home this summer.
