Generally speaking, though, there just isn't a lot of money out there for students attending MBA programs. SOM has many student interest groups. And one of the groups is called the Partners Student Interest Group, which is basically for spouses and significant others to help them get to know each other and to get a little bit integrated into the whole society of the school. In addition, our Student Affairs Office maintains listings and is sometimes able to assist spouses in obtaining employment, either at Yale or in the area. Spouses are able to attend our Leaders Forum lecture series , where we've had people such as Martha Stewart and Rupert Murdoch come here to give speeches.
Spouses are eligible to audit classes at the university.
However, the professor teaching the course has to approve anyone who audits his or her class. They're not offered discount tuition, as such. If they audit a class, there is no charge. We don't offer child care. Our Student Affairs Office again maintains a list of day-care agencies, however.
