Welcome to James College!
Our namesake, Baron James of Rusholme, was York鈥檚 first Vice-Chancellor. Lord James played a major role in the University鈥檚 architectural plans and was responsible in part for the collegiate system, through his desire for students to be part of a close-knit community.
Now with over 2,000 student members, around 600 of which live on Campus West, our sense of college community remains as strong as ever!
