As you prepare to move in and join our community, we want to ease the transition. Here's how to start the process, what to pack - and more importantly, what not to pack.
Please review the documents on this page regarding arrival times, packing lists, housing break dates, Micro-Fridge rental, linen packages, and much more. Make sure to complete the Spartan Start-Up Module (available July 15). It's a requirement for incoming students.
Welcome, New Spartans!
The First-Year Student Housing Guide can help navigate your way through the housing application process. It provides step by step instructions with pictures and includes a suggested packing list.
What's next? Once your housing application is complete, please use the Housing Checklist to keep you on track. Be sure to check out our residence halls and additional pictures of our First-Year Housing.
The Housing Policy Agreement is required for students that are under the age of 18 at the time of submitting the online housing deposit. An email is sent to all students that need to complete this form. Please submit completed forms by email ResidenceLife@ycp.edu, by fax 717.749.1644, or by mail.
From our experience working with college students and research suggests the first six weeks of college are pivotal in making their transition and experience successful. Because of this, all new and transfer students are required to complete the Spartan Start-Up Module in Canvas. Students who do not complete these courses on time will receive a follow-up email and a hold will be placed on their student account.
The Office of Residence Life understands that some students may need reasonable housing accommodations. New students looking for this support are asked to submit medical documentation from their doctor, which can be uploaded to the New Student Housing Application, or sent via email to residencelife@ycp.edu, faxed to 717.849.1644, or mailed to Office of Residence Life, York College of Pennsylvania, 441 Country Club Road, York, PA 17403-3651.
If you have any questions regarding this or the reasonable accommodations we may provide, please call the Office of Residence Life at 717.815.1281.
