York College of Pennsylvania admissions welcome center for campus visitors

Visit York College

Let us show you around our amazing campus, introduce you to future classmates and answer all of your questions.

The best thing about college visits is seeing a college campus in person to get a fantastic sense of whether it is the right fit. We strongly believe you'll leave your York College visit with a great understanding of what makes us unique and how we can fit into your vision for college and a career.

Tour campus, ask students questions, attend a class, meet professors, discuss financial aid options, and so much more. From the moment you set foot on campus, you'll feel the difference. But you have to take that first step — registering for a campus visit.

We're ready for you to join the Spartan family.

If you have questions about this information or an upcoming event, please contact us at 717.849.1600 or admissions@ycp.edu. Thank you

ATTENTION:  We are pleased to welcome non-residents of Pennsylvania on campus. In following the COVID-19 guidelines mandated by the state of Pennsylvania, we require that all non-residents have a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours prior to arriving for your scheduled campus visit.
