The professors are decent but the programs need improvement. The courses are not very challenging and quite frankly most of it seems like busy work. I have been here for a year and a half and I honestly don't think I've learned anything that I didn't already know in high school. The required meal plans are outrageously overpriced ($12/meal when most people can't eat more than $5 worth of food). I would recommend this school to COMMUTERS ONLY. Do not live here. The neighborhood is awful, the campus is mediocre, the city is boring, and the food is awful.

I feel that YCP has prepared me for the workforce in a way that no other institution could. This school has given me the opportunity to branch out and step past my comfort zone, it gave me the opportunity to network with individuals in my field of study, and above all it gave me the personal attention that enabled me to thrive at this institution. From the very beginning I was able to call this place my home, and it will always have a place in my mind.

Even though people say theres not a lot to do here they're definitely wrong. While it's true that a lot of the parties get broken up, it's not any different from any other campus that I've seen. And Like any school the food is "college grade." That being said, the professors are really brilliant. The class sizes are small and professors are easily approachable. The buildings on campus are all pretty new and everything stays maintained. Never have I felt unsafe on campus, however I wouldn't wander far off campus at night, just like at any other school. Overall York is a friendly school with a great atmosphere, I'm definitely going to miss it when I leave this summer Thu, 26 Apr 2012 04:40:37 GMT http://www.studentsreview.com/PA/YCP_comments.html StudentsReview: Negative Review about YCP for History/Histories (art history/etc.)http://www.studentsreview.com/PA/YCP_comments.html It was definitely not the worst place, but was not the most friendly to humanities students.

The college sees itself as specializing in "Professionalism" but really, its in professional studies. It's not bad if you want to be a nurse, teacher, or middle management, but I was quite possibly the person least prepared in my graduate program. There was a small hardworking faculty in my department, but the standards didn't prepare me at all for what came later. The school bragged that it operated in the black, but neglected to mention that they did this via exploitation of adjuncts (far too many classes were taught by adjuncts for a school this size- and the English adjuncts were incompetent) and did not give those adjuncts the opportunity to buy into health care at all.

The faculty are very knowledgeable and experienced in their fields. That said, it is a liberal arts college, so you will be required to take some courses you may not be particularly keen on. The dining & housing requirements for on campus residents is extortion - $2,000 for a semesters meals - and they're really awful. If you're near by and you want to commute then it's a great and affordable option. It's really not the greatest campus to live on though.
