The heart of what we do!
Inclusively Christian and an ecumenical community

Life at YDS

Life at Yale Divinity School revolves around our dynamic and engaged community of students. Our students pursue a wide range of academic and professional interests. They engage in innumerable activities outside the classroom, from student organizations and campus governance to community service and internships. Our students share meals together in the refectory, worship together in Marquand Chapel, and come together at a host of events ranging from daily coffee hour to monthly community meals. 

In all of their pursuits, students cultivate networks of meaningful relationships that enrich their experiences within the Divinity School, at Yale University, and in the greater New Haven community.
