Class of 2026 Bursary

Congratulations to the Class of 2026 as they look forward to their Graduation ceremony tomorrow. We couldn’t be more proud of all they've accomplished while students at York.

The Class of 2026 Bursary Endowment campaign has raised over $270,000 from over 50% of the class in support of needs based student financial aid. We are grateful for all donations, regardless of the amount. If you haven't had the chance to donate, you can do so at the link below. We look forward to celebrating this community effort at the reception tomorrow. Thank you!
