We are a high quality university with a growing reputation for academic excellence and a friendly, community spirit. Based in the heart of the city, York St John University has a magnificent campus and a vibrant, rewarding atmosphere.
We have also recently opened a campus in the London Borough of Islington – a dynamic and exciting area that is proximate to the world famous Barbican Estate. YSU.London is a postgraduate campus with a commitment to educate, motivate and inspire a new generation of innovators, entrepreneurs and business leaders.
We want our University to be thoroughly student-centred, with students and staff working in partnership. Our campuses provide space for exciting, interactive learning. We will continue to nurture an academic community that promotes wellbeing, creativity, discovery and the personal development of students and staff.
