- You have been out of full-time high school studies for at least two years, and;
- You have not attempted studies at an accredited college or university.

Senior Citizens
It's never too late to earn your degree: York welcomes seniors to share their experiences while gaining new knowledge and skills.
To support your lifelong learning, Canadian senior citizens or permanent residents are eligible for a tuition fee waiver. The tuition fee waiver for an eligible senior citizen is restricted to a maximum of one undergraduate and one graduate degree.
To be eligible you must be 60 years or older by May 1 for Summer entry, or by September 1 for Fall/Winter entry.
The tuition fee waiver is capped for senior citizens to the level of tuition fees assigned to domestic, non-professional undergraduate arts, science and other programs as defined in the tuition fee guidelines from the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities.
I believe in lifelong learning for seniors, educating themselves beyond conventional limits placed on them in society.
