Colleges at York
Whether you live on or off campus, every student at York is a member of one of our 11 colleges.
Each college has its own history and character, but they're all here to provide the same thing; colleges are your foundation for getting involved in campus life and a gateway to exploring the wider university community.
With a team of staff and student volunteers, colleges are your first point of support and guidance. They're somewhere to foster a sense of belonging upon arrival, make friends and try out new things.
