The Office of Career Strategy collects information about Yale College graduates. This tool allows users to search outcomes by year and major. Please visit Statistics & Reports for more information on our data collection.

First Destination summaries are based on the Knowledge Rate of graduate outcomes six months after graduation according to National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) guidelines.
Knowledge Rate, defined by NACE, includes direct survey responses and basic employment or graduate school information collected through other sources, such as faculty, academic advisors, or LinkedIn. Yale’s information below on Starting Salary and Time of Year Offer Received is based only on direct survey responses.

Helpful Tips for the Interactive Tool:

There is no Enter or Submit Button; results will appear automatically
The default is ‘All Years’ or ‘All Majors.’ Choose specific years or majors for more granular results. Uncheck the selected major(s) to reset your search.
The tool returns results with at least five responses. For small majors, choose ‘All Years’ to show results
To ensure confidentiality, results are reported in the aggregate
If you require additional information contact the Office of Career Strategy

First Destination

First Destination refers to the postgraduate plans of Yale College graduates six months after graduation. The pursuits of Yale graduates include employment, graduate school, independent research, military service, and more.

Top Employers

This list of employers shows organizations that hired the most graduates in the selected year and/or major. Please note employers are listed first in the order of those that hired the most graduates but are listed in alphabetical order if the same number of graduates were hired in the same year or major. This list changes annually, and the Office of Career Strategy works closely with employers across industries and functional areas.

Size of the Organization

Yale graduates choose employers of all sizes and typically only about half of the graduates in each class choose the largest size employers (501+ employees).

Starting Salary

The salary information below includes only salaries self-reported by graduates employed full-time in the U.S. and does not include bonuses or other forms of compensation.

Time of Year Offer Received

Although graduates report accepting their post-graduate positions throughout their senior year, typically 50% of graduates secure their full-time position in the spring of senior year or later.

First Destination Locations

When considering an entire Class, the majority remain in the U.S., while on average more than 10% reside outside of the country.

NOTE: Hover over each state to see the percentage of graduates in that state. Grey indicates no graduates from this class year.

Advanced Degrees Pursued

The chart below shows the graduate degrees being pursued immediately after graduation. Each year, more than 70% of Yale College graduates employed immediately after graduation indicate they intend to pursue a graduate degree in the next five years.
