At York St John University we have a great community ethos and a strong reputation for supporting students from all over the world, both personally and academically. We prepare our students for the future, not only equipping them with the subject-specific skills and knowledge to go on to their chosen career, but also the transferable life and work skills that employers are looking for both in the UK and overseas.

But it is the experience, life skills and extracurricular achievements they take with them that makes our graduates truly appreciate their time at York St John University.
