Sophia was friendly and welcoming, and gave us a great tour around Yale. My son (prospective student) was enthused about applying, and for me (an alum) it was a trip down memory lane. Highly recommended!

Our guide, Sophia, was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything in great detail and made a genuine effort to answer all of our questions and show us everything we wanted to see. Even though it was a very hot and tiring afternoon, she remained enthusiastic, patient, and gave her very best throughout the entire tour. We truly appreciated her dedication and highly recommend her to anyone visiting.
