York College is one of several colleges in the City University of New York (CUNY) system located in the Borough of Queens in New York City. Opened in 1967, York was the first college founded under the newly-formed CUNY system, which united several previously independent public colleges into a single public university system in 1961.

York opened with an enrollment of 371 students in rented classrooms in Bayside . In 1971 the college moved to its current location in Jamaica, and has built and renovated several facilities since its inception. In 1986, York opened its Academic Core Building, the largest of six buildings on the York College campus.

Today, with an enrollment of more than 4,000, York serves as one of CUNY's leading general-purpose liberal arts colleges, granting bachelor's degrees in more than 40 fields.
