Forward Action Plan
The York U Forward Action Plan is a critical University-wide strategy enabling the University to advance the University Academic Plan (UAP) and achieve financial sustainability in light of unexpected policy directions at the provincial and federal levels affecting higher education. The action plan consists of 17 projects divided into three important streams: Program Enhancement and Sustainability; Enrolment Recovery; and Administrative Projects.

Provostial White Paper
In 2009, the Provost started a ten-year strategic planning process with faculty, staff and students from across the University. As a result of this exercise, a Provostial White Paper was produced and endorsed by the University's Senate. The paper sets out priorities for academic quality, the student experience, and community engagement, along with benchmarks to help measure progress made on the goals. The priorities in this paper guide academic planning, including the University Academic Plan and other Faculty plans.
