York College of Pennsylvania operates on a rolling admissions basis for most programs, allowing applications to be submitted year-round. However, priority deadlines are recommended for optimal consideration. Fall semester applications should ideally be submitted by March 1, while spring semester applications are best completed by December 1.
Some competitive programs or scholarships may have earlier deadlines, so verifying specific requirements is advised. Transfer students follow similar timelines but should confirm additional documentation needs. The college accepts applications through its online portal, with decisions typically released within two weeks of receiving all required materials.
