Welcome to the University of York Erasmus Society!

Studying abroad can be one of the most exciting and interesting experience that a student can live through: discovering a new country with its culture, its language and its people… so many new things to get use to!

That's what the Erasmus Scheme is all about, giving the European Union students the opportunity to leave their home university, from a term to a year, with administrative support and financial help.

Our society is basically meant to help Erasmus students to get involved in the University life and to create a network of friends and support around them. It is also a good way to keep on practising foreign languages and share features of each other's culture in a friendly and relaxed way.

We thus try to gather European students through socials, activities, trips and tandems to give them the opportunity to meet people and to share their experience with others.

Whether you enjoy touristy things, exploring the local area, pubbing, clubbing, chatting ... the Erasmus society has something for everyone. It's run by students for students and everyone is welcome. The main thing our society is looking for, is for you to enjoy your year in York and to have quality times there!

For more information feel free to contact us …or come along to one of our socials!
