Student Clubs and Organizations

The Office of Student Activities complements the academic experience with co-curricular programs that promote social and personal development. The office serves as a resource center for students interested in planning social, educational, and recreational programs and assists students in developing leadership skills that they can use in a professional setting upon their graduation from York College. York College is home to various academic, social, athletic, cultural, recreational, political, and select interest groups that provide valuable learning experiences for students and faculty.

York has many clubs and organizations that have been active over its 50 plus years to help students create and become involved in Student Clubs including; African Student Association, Anime and Otaku Culture Club, Jumpstart Club, N.A.B.A. (National Association of Black Accountants), York College Christian Association, York College Pre-Med Club, York Student Occupational Therapy Association (Y.S.O.T.A.) and the York Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (S.A.A.C.) to name a few.

New clubs and organizations may be created (with SGA chartering approval) based on what members of the York campus student community feel is needed. Inactive clubs may be re-established as well. If you are interested in starting or re-establishing a club or organization, please visit the Student Activities website, for more information. Also, please feel free to contact Dr. Phelps at  jphelps@york.cuny.edu, Mrs. Beverly-Skinner at  sbeverlyskinner@york.cuny.edu, Mr. Joery Francois at  jfrancois4@york.cuny.edu, or the Student Activities Office at 718-262-2285.

The Office of Student Activities hosts town halls, Leadership Training Seminars, Game Day activities, and more. We have webinars on re-establishing clubs, completing the new digital forms, starting new clubs, and virtual events (scavenger hunts, York trivia, virtual programming, etc.). Welcome events start with the Welcome Party and continue with a Meet & Greet, and Game Day. We do Voter Registration and Voter Education. Also, look out for Spoken Word/Poetry Slam, DJ Battle, and the Talent Show.

Student Activities posts updates and announcements on the Cardinal App regularly. Swing by the Office of Student Activities to ask questions, receive assistance and stay connected. You can also request a virtual meeting room for your club meetings. As always, we are available to you!
