    This has been a great school for me since I am interested in a technical field. The school is small and the staff is friendly. My instructors in the welding class are like older brothers who I can ask personal questions not just school related.

    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you are ready to commit to a schedule. If you can not stay focused it will take so much longer as specific courses are not offered all the time. At least in the welding area I have found this to be true.

    Academic Rigor

    Well, so far all my classes have been hands on so I have the ability to raise my grades by repeated effort. This summer I will knock out my academic requirements so that remains to be seen.

    Dorm Life

    No dorms available

    Food and Dining

    Since no campus residential there is only a cafeteria and vending machines.

    What to do for fun

    I like to watch movies and do gaming.

    Bang for the buck

    Using Amazon to purchase books saves me about half the cost of on campus bookstore.

    Great for these types of students

    If you want to work with your hands and create things this is a great school.

    Clubs and Activities

    Since I do not live on campus and have a part time job I have not researched the clubs.

    Campus Safety

    I have heard of lock downs at many other school. Our only issue here is parking at certain times of the day.

    i always suggest using the website www.ratemyprofessor.com to find professors that will suit oneself. i have used this website for both online and on-campus classes. i also suggest if at all possible, and if the student is self-determined, to take some classes online. this allows people to move at their own pace and work when is convenient with personal schedules.

    Am enjoying being here

    The campus is very nice to be at, it's clean and I feel safe. The teachers are all willing to help in any way they can.

    Bang for the buck

    The school is affordable and there are many different ways to pay. They now have a tuition payment plan that splits up the cost. Even though I still struggle sometimes to pay for school, it's a reasonable price for the education I get there.

    Tips for prospective students

    I would tell prospective students to register for classes early because they get full fast. Also, to meet all requirements well before the deadlines just to make sure you are prepared for the worst. York Tech is a great school to go to. I feel like I am accomplishing something by going there.

    Great for these types of students

    York Tech is great for anyone. The flexible scheduling is great for parents or people with full-time jobs. The payment plan and other financial aid help makes it easier to succeed.
