At the center of every student’s Yale experience is their residential college. Despite their name, colleges have nothing to do with classes or majors. Each residential college includes student suites, a dining hall, community spaces, a gym, a café, and a library. Students often refer to their residential colleges as “home base,” or “my home away from home,” or simply, “the best.”
