Our Student Social Coordinators (SSC) are also here to help. They’re students at the University of York and they organise trips, events and socials for you, as well as show you around the campus and attend some of your meals.

This is the best summer programme I can possibly imagine. I enjoyed every minute of it. I have met with wonder[ful] people, both the students and the staff, and have been to wonderful places and seen wonderful art.
