FAQ
About York University
Still unsure? One call with a counsellor usually settles it.
Ask us directlyCan Vision Success apply to York University for me?
Yes. We prepare and file the application, follow it to a decision, and handle the offer, the fee payment and the visa file that follows. York University is one of the universities in Canada we counsel for.
What are the entry requirements?
They vary by programme and by level. Bring your transcripts and any English test result you already hold and we will tell you which courses you meet today, and what would close the gap on the rest.
What does it cost to study at York University?
Tuition depends on the programme and the intake, and universities revise their fee schedules each year. We quote the current published figure for the exact course on your shortlist, with the living costs you must show for the visa.
How early should I start?
Six to nine months before your intake, and twelve to eighteen for the United States. Offers come back in weeks; the visa that follows is the longer part.
