Graduation is an unforgettable day dedicated to you and your achievements.
It's a time to look back on the successes, friendships, challenges and experiences that make up your degree and be proud of how far you have come.
When you graduate from York St John University you get to celebrate this moment in one of York's most iconic buildings - York Minster. Soak up the atmosphere and share the moment with friends, family and staff who have supported you along the way. This is your day.
