Student Budget & Cost of Attendance Our financial aid awards for 2014-2015 are based on a budget of tuition and fees plus allowances for living expenses, books, etc. These budgets reflect our estimate of the cost of a moderate style of living in New Haven for the nine-month academic year. * Note that to date University Health Coverage costs for 2014-2105 have not been set- as such this budget presently defaults to the 2013-2014 rate. Academic Requirements Students are required to take no fewer than two course credits in the humanities and arts, two course credits in the sciences, and two course credits in the social sciences. In addition to completing courses in these disciplinary areas, students must fulfill skills requirements by taking two course credits in quantitative reasoning, two course credits in writing, and courses to further their foreign language proficiency. Depending on their level of accomplishment in foreign languages at matriculation, students may fulfill this last requirement with one, two, or three courses or by a combination of course work and approved study abroad. The Yale College Programs of Study provides a comprehensive discussion of the Distributional Requirements.
