  Yale Online Alumni Community

Yale Online Alumni Directory

The Online Alumni Directory contains degree and contact information for all alumni from all schools. You can search for other alumni as well as update your record whenever your own information changes. In addition, you can hide from view any part or all of your personal contact information. Visit http://www.aya.yale.edu/online for more information.

The Yale Career Network (YaleCN) allows you to connect with other alumni to discuss career objectives and explore career interests. While not a job placement service, the Yale Career Network can be a valuable tool to assist you in your career pursuits by allowing you to reach out to nearly 11,000 alumni networkers. You may have used this service as a student; and we encourage you to log on now to http://www.aya.yale.edu/career and fill out your career profile.

The Virtual Yale Station (VYS) e-mail forwarding address, while not a full e-mail account, can provide you with a permanent e-mail address. Once you set it up, any mail sent to your username@aya.yale.edu address will automatically be forwarded to any full e-mail account you specify (a work, school, or personal e-mail account). One of the primary advantages of a permanent forwarding address is that it will not change even if you change jobs or otherwise change e-mail service providers. Visit http://www.aya.yale.edu/vys for more information about VYS e-mail forwarding.
