The Uni Guide has a fresh new look

Creative City Campus Rural

UCAS code: Y75

Founded in 1841 we transform lives through the power of education across the generations. We pride ourselves in our community here at York St John University. It’s a close-knit, inclusive place that offers a lot more than a degree certificate. With official ‘Sanctuary’ status, we see our role as something bigger than an education provider.

    • I don’t live in student accommodation so can’t comment on that, getting the train to York everyday can get quite expensive but is manageable
