Website Design through the WIX/Yale Partnership

Wix.com is a leading cloud-based development platform with millions of users worldwide. Wix makes it easy for everyone to create a beautiful, professional website or online  portfolio. Promote your business, showcase your art, set up an online shop or just test out new ideas. The Wix website builder has everything you need to create a fully personalized, high-quality website.

In answer to Yale students’ recent dependence on virtual engagement the Yale Office of Career Strategy and Wix.com have partnered to provide access to a unique, multi-year premium account. See additional details below.

While the promotion lasts, and on a first-request basis, the WIX/Yale Partnership will provide Yale students a personal code to activate a subsidized WIX premium account:

  • You must be a current student of Yale College or GSAS; only one request per student.
  • While slots remain available, WIX will provide a unique code that allows a Wix user to upgrade to any tier of premium account for free, for a set duration.
  • The code does not need to be used until the end of the each academic year. You can plan to do your design/development work in the free version and then activate the upgrade when you’re ready to publish and promote, allowing the discount to last longer.
  • Once the free upgrade expires (either two or three years from the date it’s first used, depending on your class year) your account will begin to be charged as premium or will revert to a free basic account. This means, at that time, any premium features (custom URL, removed ad banner, storefront, etc.) will require a monthly charge, or will go away.
