Services
Student services
From the moment orientation leaders cheer you on at your campus arrival to the moment you wear the cap and gown, we jam-pack your semesters with action, fun, and opportunities to flourish.
Housing services
Living on campus is a big deal at York College. In fact, if you aren’t a commuter, we require it. Why? In part because we see how much of a positive impact it can have when students live in close proximity to classes and to their classmates. When you’re in an inclusive community that cares about you, you’ll find it easier to adapt to college and be successful.
We offer modern living with apartments, houses, and suites for upperclassmen, as well as traditional college halls. On-campus, you’re never too far away from food, class, the fitness center and more.
Medical services
The Health Services Office at York College is committed to keeping students feeling well by providing the best care possible. Our physician and nurse practitioner are available by appointment to make sure a student can get treatment for the common cold or find local referrals for more serious illnesses.
