Choosing to go to York University was one of the best decisions I've made. York has supported me both financially through scholarships and academically to pursue a career in the public service. The fourth year Practicum course was a stepping stone that helped kick-start my career. I will always be grateful to York and wonderful faculty for the opportunities and support they have provided for me.
