Application Checklist & Deadlines for Admission 2010-2011 School Year

  • Shadow Day : October - November & January - February
    We encourage students to experience York first hand by spending a full day on campus with a student host. These visits are often the best way to gauge whether York is a good match for a student’s interests and personality. Contact the Admission Office at 831.372.7338, ext. 115 or 116 to schedule a visit.
