Get To Know York With a Campus Tour!

I don't know if you know this, but York University is the third largest University (by area) in CANADA! That's a lot of land to cover and get to know... 457.14 acres to be exact!!!

It can be scary at first...

But once you're a student, you will become a pro!

If you haven't been on campus yet, or didn't get a chance to explore much of it when you visited, I would recommend a campus tour! Campus tours happen almost every day at least once a day (and sometimes twice a day). During your tour you get led by a guide (usually a current student) who will show you some key buildings around campus, and share some cool facts along the way. They are free, and very useful!

It is recommended to sign up for a tour ahead of time. You can get the tour schedule and access to sign up here.

For those interested in a residence tour in addition to a campus tour, the campus tours which are at 10:30am include a residence tour. In addition there is a residence tour at 2:30pm Mon- Fri, however it does not include a campus tour (there is no sign up needed, just show up at McLaughlin College room 108 for 2:30). Please note that residence tours show Tatham Hall residence only. To check out the other residences, you can find a virtual tour for each residence here.

If you do end up coming on campus, and taking a tour make sure to visit me at York's RED Zone (located in Vari Hall)!

Until Next Time, I'll be Yorking Around,
