University of York

The University of York was been established in 1963. A leading UK university, creating independent critical thinkers through a culture of academic excellence and groundbreaking research. As a member of the prestigious Russell Group we are committed to research-led teaching, providing a supportive and inclusive learning experience for our students. We hold a Gold Teaching Excellence Framework award, showing that we deliver consistently outstanding teaching, learning and outcomes for our students.

All our accommodation is on or near campus and is guaranteed for international students. You will become a member of one of our nine colleges which encourages inclusivity and a valuable sense of community, through a wealth of social activities and a supportive system available to each and every student. A wide variety of clubs and societies on campus, as well as our college system, make it very easy for new students to integrate and feel at home throughout their studies.

York is a flourishing city, being voted the ‘best place to live in the UK’ (The Sunday Times, 2018). With a wide array of shops, museums, festivals, sporting and cultural activities, restaurants and cafes it is big enough to feel lively, but small enough to be friendly. Number of students are 18,000 students total and over 4.000 international students.
