Summer 2023
We look forward to welcoming you to the Jackson School this August! Below is a preliminary outline of the 2023 orientation schedule, which we will continue updating in the coming weeks.
Stay tuned for a new Jackson New Student Orientation Group in Yale Connect for the detailed schedule of activities.
We also have a special team of second-year students, our New Student Orientation (NSO) coordinators, organizing a variety of activities as well. You will start to hear from them later in the summer.
