York University is a welcoming, diverse and supportive community. The professors want to help you succeed in your classes. There are many ways to get involved on campus. You can participate in orientation week, join student clubs and even work on campus. Throughout my undergraduate experience, I created lifelong friends and expanded my network.

York University is a really beautiful school. The times I’ve been there, I’m always amazed by the beauty of the surroundings. Although, I would say it’s not secured as anybody can literally walk into the campuses. They have various interesting clubs and the Scott library is so huge. If you’re thinking of going to york U, first off, check the reputation of the course you’re interested in. Not all courses are recommended to study there. So far, so good, I’ll rate the school a 7/10.

I am currently in a concurrent education program at York U. I think the best part of the program, is that it allows future teachers to get weeks, if not months, of experience teaching in a classroom environment before graduating. Experience that is very useful when applying to school boards and for teaching positions after graduation. However, this experience was only provided in the final year of my bachelor’s degree. As a concurrent student, I think there should be more opportunities for co-op and experiential learning throughout the entire undergraduate degree.

I completed a collab program in which I did two years in Seneca collage and york u. York u portion was more theoretical than hands-on. I would of liked if the hands on component carried on throughout the last two years.
