BE YU Welcome Event 2025: Rooted in Excellence

Join us for the annual Black Excellence at York University (BE YU) Welcome Event, a signature gathering created to celebrate, connect, and empower incoming Black students at York University. This year, we are proud to present our theme: “Rooted in Excellence” — a celebration of the resilience, brilliance, and impact of the Black community at York and beyond.

This inspiring session is designed to provide new students with the tools, knowledge, and community connections needed to make a smooth and successful transition to university life. You’ll hear from a dynamic keynote speaker who will share powerful insights on navigating post-secondary education while staying grounded in your identity and purpose.

The event also features a panel discussion with current students and alumni who will speak candidly about their experiences, offer practical tips, and answer your questions about academics, campus life, and building your support network.

Whether you’re seeking guidance, motivation, or community, this event is your first step into a thriving network committed to your success. You can register for the event here.
