None of the above the entry score is 75-80 average the university is Canadian therefore there is no entry level test like the SAT
Placement :
The job opportunities and Placements at York Univeristy are not bad. For teaching it is first come first serve for the school district you choose for placement, but for jobs on campus they are various and many are offered each school year.
