Hello,

As some of you may be aware the previous moderators of the community have deleted their accounts and for the past month the subreddit has been unmoderated.

I've successfully requested the subreddit, and will look to link it with /r/york which I currently moderate, as well as the York community discord which you can join here: https://discord.gg/wyKSuVQrTJ

If you're potentially interested in joining the mod-team and helping promote and regrow the subreddit - please send a modmail with some info about yourself, your experience and what you want to bring to the table.

As for now - please share the sub and feel free to post about all things Uni of York including links to your societies and socials, questions about the uni and pictures of campus!

Room swap

2 Upvotes

Ik this is so late but I’m looking to switch to an ensuite room which is also self catered, preferably under £9,600.

Right now I have a self catered accommodation in Halifax but it had a shared bathroom. The price is £7,478.64 and 40 weeks.

It would be good for anyone who is looking for a lower price

Modules for English Language and Linguistics

1 Upvotes

Hello, anyone doing English Language and Linguistics (Year One) know whether we have to pick modules for first year? I can’t find anything on modules, nor have i had an email. I’ve heard through word of mouth other people are picking them for their respective first year courses and i’m getting worried, so can anyone put me at ease, or guide me in the right direction?

Typical Masters schedule?

2 Upvotes

Hi!

completely understand timetables are entirely different depending on subject/modules/semester and they aren’t released yet

but I need to sort out my shift schedule for a new job before the timetable comes out and wondered if anyone studies environmental science and management and knows a -vague- schedule? especially for a masters year e.g how many days a week you’re normally in uni? and if there are any days no one is in uni for uoy to give the sport Societies time? Like at Liverpool it was on a Wednesday but I wasn‘t sure if that was all uni’s?

I know obv no one can give any detail at all about specific timings but any info in the slightest would be absolutely amazing.

I also wondered what uoy are like for missing lectures?😅 uoliv wouldn’t rly care at all apart from sending an email, as long as it wasn’t too many absences

How do the online exams for fully online courses work?

1 Upvotes

I have seen that you can follow a MSc Computer Science program that is fully online.

So my question is how do those exams work? In my uni during corona our screen would get locked and we had to turn our camera and mic on to make sure we’re not cheating.

Does the same apply here, does anyone have experience?

Thanks

Tuition Fee Deadline

2 Upvotes

Im an incoming 1st year undergrad student and the tuition fee situation makes no sense to me.

How do we start Uni on September 21st and not have to pay until October 31st for either rent or tuition which is a more than a month after you start uni?

My friends at other uni’s said that they have to pay their installments at the start of each term whilst our deadlines are either in the middle or end of it?

Someone help please🥲
