To ensure a successful transition to Yale and into your Postgraduate Appointment, we encourage you to focus on the following items as soon as you arrive to campus: 

• Meet with your Faculty Mentor and someone from your department’s Human Resources/Business Office to ensure things such as your Net ID and Yale Email are set-up and working! 
• Go to the Yale ID Center for your ID Card - Welcome | ID Center (yale.edu).
