Question regarding summer social...Does the student host contact those registered for the event prior to? Or do you just show up? The reason I ask, I am scheduled to attend one next week and have not received any info other than date/time of event. Thanks!
They're a lot of fun, and very informal. I'm hosting the one in Brooklyn and will probably show up to the one in New York. Keep checking back often, as we'll continue to post others in cities with over-subscribed events. http://mba.yale.edu/MBA/admissions/events.asp

Have any current, prospective, or former students gone to one of these summer socials? What has everyone's experience been like? Is it just an informal information session led by students? Just signed up for the one in Philly at the end of July!

If there's no specific location listed already, the student host/admissions should clarify via email soon. I didn't attend the summer social in my area last year, but I did attend a coffee chat and the student host sent out detailed info -- reservation info, personal contact info, what people were/will be wearing, etc -- about the day or two before hand.
