I've heard about YorkC's 4 day study week-are there classes on Fridays?
There are no instructor-led classes on Fridays.
Fridays are self-directed days, meaning that we ask that all Full-Time students dedicate Fridays to practicing critical independent work skills such as reviewing class notes, working on projects, or prepping for the week ahead. This ensures that students can wrap up every week of class confidently.
