Since opening its doors in 2021, the CUNY York College Welcome Center has stood as a state-of-the-art facility located in the heart of the atrium, easily accessible to all. As the primary point of contact for prospective students, parents, and visitors, the center offers a modern and spacious environment equipped with the latest technology. This includes the QLess system, which notifies students via text when staff are ready to assist them, thus preventing lines or long waits. Serving as a hub for campus tours, admissions information sessions, and personalized consultations, the Welcome Center ensures that every visitor receives the support and guidance they need to navigate their educational journey at York College.

At the CUNY York College Welcome Center, our commitment to exceptional customer service is paramount. Our knowledgeable staff, proficient in various languages, including Spanish and Urdu, provides comprehensive information about academic programs, student services, and campus life. We strive to make every interaction positive and productive, assisting students with completing and submitting documents across various offices, including the Registrar, Health Services, and Financial Aid. We assist students in completing the CUNY application, ensuring a smooth and efficient admissions process, and we promote campus events and address concerns on the Cardinal App.
