Sort:Latest reviewsThe university is very welcoming and a really nice place to study I’m glad I chose York St John’s as the place for my studying :)
I was worried about personal problems that may affect my ability in lectures and seminar, which i notified the department about this. They was nothing but helpful and supportive, making me feel at ease and confident in myself.
I love that we are located in the city centre I feel as though I can get into town and enjoy all the cultural experiences it has to offer. The building for design is very dated, and the mac computers are below par
Great campus, friendly atmosphere and staff. Course is weak, mostly a comp-sci course with limited games related teaching. Understaffed and underfunded course
It’s a small campus so things are relatively easy to find but in terms of student support as much as they try it’s very in demand so they don’t always have the best in terms of help. With this being said academic tutors have been extremely useful in looking after their students.
Beautiful area, really care about the students and put effort in to the lectures and seminars to give us the best support possible for our degree.
Best: the student union gives a great atmosphere and cheap drinks Worse: The workload
the best aspect is the people which you can meet and befriend, the only negative aspect is with staying in accommodations people come past being loud at all hours which makes it difficult to make it to early lectures

amazing location, super supportive staff and fantastic quick access wellbeing system
Really welcoming! Although they should make events longer. I wanted to go to the housing fair but due to lectures I cannot attend and have missed an opportunity.
Every features and facilities like, Student support, Students' union, Location, Campus look and feel, etc make such a great place to study. "Only one of the best Universitiy of the World"
york st jhon university is a great university for the student who really wants to study in different sector . they really support in every field for the student.
I love everything about York St John everyone is so welcoming and I love being here
It’s great as it’s very welcoming, the staff at York St John University are very helpful and friendly. The facilities are the only issue, as a Computer Science Student I would prefer if the network was better, this issue makes some of the computers freeze or crash completely
The location is amazing, I can almost always see the minster out of the windows of my classrooms! It’s also so small which gives you a really personal feel with both classmates and lecturers. I do feel like it being so small has its downsides though, as there is less to do and see.

Libary is very good. Very small classes tho
I can study lots of new things. As for worst thing, my accommodation is so worse. I even wasn’t given chance to decide my flat.
Absolutely love everything about the university, the SU, the staff the library, the facilities. Everything!
the best, is the people you meet and the likeminded ness only found at uni and the worst has to be the financial support.
4.4
Its a great university, very good facilities and teaching resources, the people in York are also great. Not really much more to improve.
The best part is the incredible sports facilities there are and the only bad aspect is that they are a bit far from the main campus
It is very modern and safe aswell as its close to the main campus.
