University life is about much more than your degree. There are so many opportunities to develop your strengths and enhance your skills to make you more attractive to employers. The York Award recognises and rewards your contribution to college life, societies, volunteering, employer events, work placements and internships and provides a helpful framework through which you can reflect on your personal and professional development.
