Gifts to the annual Alumni Fund alleviate our students’ financial burdens when they travel to important auditions and attend international competitions, and allow the School of Music to fund master classes and to acquire and maintain fine instruments.

The Alumni Fund offsets the financial burden of professional study at Yale and makes it possible for Yale School of Music students to participate in important musical activities throughout the world. Just as alumni gifts once helped fund your time at Yale, you can now take pride in knowing your generosity is helping those who are here now.

How do E-transcripts work?
When an order for an E-transcript is fulfilled, the recipient will receive two emails—one to generate a passcode and one with a URL to enter the passcode and download the E-transcript. The recipient may access and download the E-transcript up to three time before the URL expires.

If the recipient encounters problems with the E-transcript download it is recommended to clear the internet browser cache and ensure the most up to date Adobe software edition is installed.

The Office of Alumni Affairs office is located in the administrative offices of Sprague Memorial Hall at 98 Wall St. and is open Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., during the school year.
