With over 13,000 members worldwide, the entity continues to uphold its legacy as the most extensive college clubhouse. Membership eligibility extends to individuals who have earned a degree from Yale University, full-time graduate students enrolled in a degree-granting program at Yale, and full-time professors.

The club hosts nearly 300 events ranging from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations each year and caters to diverse member interests. Types of activities organized by the club include lectures by experts, themed toasts held on the rooftop terrace, tours of New York’s most iconic landmarks, theater productions, and sports events.

In addition, the club provides a welcoming environment for members of all ages and offers family-friendly activities, including children's swimming lessons and film screenings. Amenities such as coloring books, games, and children's menus are always accessible in the Grill Room.
