Spring on the York College campus

Winter Intersession

Winter Intersession at York College is a three-week long academic experience (January 4-January 25), during which we will offer a selection of on-campus (in-person) and online courses. This is a great opportunity to earn extra credits toward your degree requirements, or perhaps retake a course to improve a grade that is not as high as you would like.
