YORK UNIVERSITY
YORK UNIVERSITY
Things every YorkU student should know before starting first year
Use your free resources!
Writing centres, tutoring,
workshops, career services &
more are included in your tuition!
Learn the campus early. Keele is
HUGE, so knowing where your
classes are will save you stress.
Avoid 8:30 AM classes. Trust me,
you'll thank yourself later.
Avoid back-to-back classes.
Unless it's a lecture + tutorial, give
yourself time to get across campus.
Budget your OSAP wisely. Make
sure it lasts the whole semester, not
just the first few weeks.
Don't buy every textbook right
away. Wait to see what you
actually need and look for used
options.

Check eClass regularly. Important
announcements, assignments and
course materials are usually posted
there.
Use office hours! Professors and
TA's are there to help, don't be
afraid to ask questions.
