Clearing is your opportunity to find the university and course that's right for you. At York St John University, we will support you through the Clearing process, regardless of where you decide to study.
Our campus is in the centre of York, a historic city full of friendly people, independent businesses and exciting experiences. If you apply during Clearing, we'll support you in finding accommodation to suit your needs and budget.
We bring modern, eco-conscious buildings together with Victorian architecture and beautiful green spaces. Our Creative Centre, home to our Performance and Computer Science courses, is a unique building featuring a 157-seat theatre and dedicated spaces for students in Creative Writing and Media Production. We are also proud of the state-of-the-art facilities for our Health courses, which enhance your learning through professional-standard equipment. This year, we opened our newly refurbished Design Centre. This building is a striking home for our Design and Computer Science courses, containing specialist equipment and innovative facilities. Other specialist spaces include Primary Education classrooms, Media and Music Production studios and labs for Biomedical Science, Health Sciences and Psychology courses.
