Yale School of Architecture Travel

Yale School of Architecture has partnered with Yale Alumni Academy to offer the classes of 2021 and 2022 a special post-graduation travel experience. Featuring great architecture and urban planning in action, these travel programs are planned with YSoA faculty who will be your guide for an exciting and memorable journey. The bonus is no homework, no reviews, and no grades! Participation in one of these special travel programs is complimentary for YSoA alumni from the classes of 2021 and 2022.
