Live Q&A With Current Yale Students

Ask current Yale students questions about academics, campus life, dorm living, and more.

Yale College has shut down campus visits and tours due to the coronavirus outbreak, and many families are worried about choosing a college without being able to visit in person and get a feel for campus life. In this Q&A session, we'll ask our panel of current Yale students a series of questions about everything ranging from campus life to safety to the classroom experience. Webinar attendees will also get to participate in the second half of the Q&A.

Q&A Participants:

Aki Dhadda is a junior at Yale from Upper Saddle River, New Jersey double-majoring in Chemistry and Economics. Aki introduces visitors to Yale as a campus tour guide and science tour guide. She is the former Secretary-General of the Yale Model United Nations Conference and a member of the competitive Model UN team. In her free time, she enjoys baking, playing with her dog, and watching reality TV!

Matt Nadel is a junior from South Florida studying History. He's an award-winning documentary filmmaker and serves as Video Projects Editor for The Politic, Yale's politics and culture newsmagazine. He's also a writer and performer for Red Hot Poker, Yale's premier sketch comedy group. When he's not Zooming into classes, you can find Matt chugging coffee (black), talking about Freud (obsessively), and mocking people who like Peloton (which he recently discovered is actually kind of a good app but don't tell any of the people he has mocked).

Sammy Landino hails from Westchester NY and is a junior Humanities major in Yale College. Sammy is an award winning member of Yale’s Model United Nations team and the director of Yale’s financial aid working group, which advocates for more equitable Yale financial aid policies. You can get Sammy to do pretty much anything so long as you promise him a good espresso or a solid music rec.

Teava Torres de Sa is a junior in Yale College from sunny Honolulu, Hawaii. He is pursuing a B.S. in Mathematics with a certificate in French. He is a member of Yale's competitive Model United Nations team and the former president of the New Haven Urban Debate League, a nonprofit that brings debate programs to New Haven public schools. He can often be found running, writing, or lost in a good conversation.
