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.
