New Student Planning & Registration
If you are a new student, who will be starting for the first time at York Tech, you will work with an Enrollment Counselor to create an academic plan that prepares you to schedule and register for your first term. After you’ve applied and completed the enrollment process, you’re ready to plan and register for your courses.
Get Ready to Register
Once you’re accepted, your enrollment counselor will review your account and select the courses you need for your first term. You will have the option to register for classes by completing the course registration form or by making an appointment in Navigate. Follow the steps below to schedule an appointment.
- Log into Navigate using your YTC username and password.
- Click the “Appointments” tab.
- Choose “Admissions & Academic Planning (NEW students).

Dropping, Adding, or Withdrawing From a Class
Students may withdraw from a course or courses by notifying their instructor(s). A grade of “W” is assigned if the student’s last date of attendance is on or before midterm of the session. If a student is withdrawing from a course and the last date of attendance is after midterm, the grade assigned may be a “W” or a “WF” based on the instructor’s discretion (Some exceptions apply in disciplinary sanctions and certain programs).
Note: Withdrawing from courses may impact a student's financial aid. Students should speak with a financial aid advisor prior to requesting to be withdrawn.
