Candidate Referral - Alumni & Current Student

Thank you to the dozens of alumni volunteers who assist our admissions efforts each year, whether by hosting or attending an event, reaching out to an admitted applicant, or in any number of other ways. Your involvement truly makes a difference and we'd like to continue that positive momentum. Getting your input on top candidates is one more way to do that.

As you think of people with whom you interact, you may not know their GRE score or GPA, but you likely know a few individuals who stand out in terms of their intelligence, ambition, unique background, and dedication to make the world a better place. These are the people we want.

In particular, given that Jackson is a community of scholars, students, practitioners, alumni, and staff dedicated to making a difference in all fields of global affairs, we are especially interested in individuals who are broad-minded and intellectually curious; who think creatively about situations; and who apply analytical rigor to solutions. In short, we want individuals who are best able to leverage three distinguishing features of Yale Jackson:
 

1.  Academically rigorous, yet flexible interdisciplinary program;
2.  Small, intellectually vibrant cohort with a broad diversity of backgrounds; and
3.  Access and integration with all of Yale's professional programs, and senior fellows who are some of the world's preeminent global affairs experts.
 

We encourage you to refer as many high-potential individuals as you know by submitting this form as many times as you need.

Thank you for your continued support of the Yale Jackson Institute for Global Affairs!
