When you have graduated, you are officially a York alum and are able to access an array of different things such as further support or events. We also want to keep in touch with you too! Whatever you do, wherever you go – keep learning, sharing and giving back.
Whether you want to further your professional life with some interesting courses, prepare yourself for a promotion with career support and advice or just stay connected with York and the friends you made whilst being here, we can help with York for Life.
