Admission to the Global Affairs major takes place during sophomore year.
Application Form & Deadline
The Fall 2024 submission deadline was October 16, 2024.
Advice to Applicants
Current underclassmen should review the requirements of the major and the FAQs. It is strongly recommended that, at the time of application, applicants have made progress towards the required economics sequence and have taken (or are currently enrolled in) GLBL 121 or an acceptable substitute.
*Global Affairs follows the Yale College COVID-19 accommodation from fall 2021 which says that courses taken Credit D/pass in fall 2021 will count for the GLBL major. This includes required courses for the major (i.e., intro economics sequence, analysis courses) taken in fall 2021.
Application Questions
Prospective majors can schedule appointments with the assistant dean for undergraduate education, Professor Bonnie Weir. Please note that such meetings do not influence admissions decisions. Deadline questions or technical issues should be directed to the Jackson School Office of Academic Services and the Registrar (jackson.registrar@yale.edu).
Information Sessions
Each fall, the Jackson School hosts information sessions for Yale sophomores who are considering the Global Affairs major.
