Description:

York St. John University is located on Lord Mayor’s Walk and faces the Minster across the City Walls– just a five minute walk from the bustling city center! York, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of England’s most historic cities and a top tourist destination within the UK. The city is located in the center of North Yorkshire in the very heart of Britain, and is connected to the rest of England by an excellent public transportation system. Both London, England, and Edinburgh, Scotland are conveniently only 2 hours by rail from York.

Accommodation Type: Residence Hall

Language of Instruction: English

Special Considerations: This is a “great value” program, meaning students pay nearly the same tuition, room, and board as a semester at KSC.
