Yale University has urged students to "shelter in place" following a report of a gunman on campus.
SWAT teams have been sighted at the university, according to college newspaper Yale Daily News.
Students have received a text message saying: "Confirmed report of person with gun on/near Old Campus. Shelter in place. This is not a test."
Police got an anonymous phone call from a phone booth at around 10am local time reporting a person on campus with a gun.
Streets close to the campus have been blockaded, according to reports.
Yale has been on November recess since Saturday, meaning many students have left to celebrate Thanksgiving.
