This means that you can offer a place to stay for another student - this is usually on the floor or couch of your personal room or common room. Students coming from other schools who need housing will be responsible for bringing their own bedding, so all they need is a place to sleep.

In addition to your registration fees being waived, this is a fun way to build a strong friendship with a student from another school who shares similar interests as you. You'll be able to show them around campus outside of conference hours and have them experience what it's like to live in a Yale dorm. Most importantly, you'll be providing a home for one night to a student who otherwise may have been unable to attend YBC!

If you are able to house a student, you will be able to register without paying for the registration fee. Once we find a student that you can house, we will connect you with them to coordinate housing. Simple!

No! We welcome all majors and disciplines.
