Shuttle Service
Yeshiva University's Department of Safety and Security provides intra- and intercampus shuttle services on a scheduled basis. On–campus shuttles are called locals. The local will transport you, upon request, to the different campus buildings. To call a local to pick you up, go to the security desk located in the front lobby of each building, and ask for a shuttle to be called. Security will notify you when the shuttle has arrived.
The intercampus shuttle, commonly known as the uptown shuttle, goes between the Beren Campus starting at Brookdale Residence Hall, and the Wilf Campus, ending at 186th Street and Amsterdam Avenue.
To sign up for a shuttle going uptown, call 212.340.7460 after 11 a.m. To sign up for a shuttle going to midtown, call 212.960.5200 after 11 a.m.
*If you ever forget or lose a number, remember—they’re all on the back of your ID card!
YUMS
YUMS is your Yeshiva University Mail System. On YUMS, you receive intercampus e-mails, notifications from your professors and Angel account updates. You can set up mail forwarding so that you only have to check one e-mail address. One of the most important types of e-mails that you will receive through your YUMS are Sstuds (Stern Students). which are campuswide e-mails about upcoming events, speakers, important notices and more. Checking your YUMS account is an important part of being a YU student.
Angel
Angel is one of the University's online resources for course communication and organization. It is a Web-based course management program that allows you to communicate with your classmates and professors as well as keep up with your course assignments. If your professor plans on utilizing Angel, the professor will discuss how much or how little it will be a part of your course at the beginning of the semester.
