What is Eligible for the SEG

The SEG is a one-time award. Eligible students can request the SEG for a single eligible experience:

  • Study Abroad: A Yale Summer Session (YSS) Abroad or Yale in London program.
  • Professional Development: A domestic, in-person government, non-profit, arts, or research opportunity.

The SEG can be used for either an eligible study abroad OR professional development experience, not both.

SEG for Study Abroad

Eligible students can apply to the SEG to receive funding towards the program budget of a single Yale Summer Session (YSS) Abroad program or a single Yale in London program, in proportion to the financial aid percentage they received during the academic year.

SEG for Professional Development

The SEG provides $4000 for a domestic, in-person experience such as an internship at a 501C3, an arts apprenticeship, or a volunteer position.
