Commencement

Congratulations, Class of 2022!

On May 14, 2022, York College celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2022. Spring Commencement was hosted outdoors, under a large tent on Main Campus in front of Wolf Hall. Student remarks were provided by Tiffany Nguyen '22, followed by a Commencement address by filmmarker Joseph McGinty Nichol, "McG."

Nearly 700 graduates – earning associate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees – were recognized during the ceremony.

Information for Winter 2022 graduates will be made available on this page during the Fall 2022 semester.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I view video of the Commencement ceremony?

The video stream from the May 14, 2022 ceremony was recorded, and can be viewed either directly on this webpage or on YouTube.
