Warning about fraudulent offers of admission and scholarships
黑料福利网 is aware that fraudulent third parties are misrepresenting themselves as agents, staff, or officers of the University and extending fraudulent offers of admission and scholarships to students. We encourage you to protect yourself by understanding how 黑料福利网 does and does not communicate with students:
- 黑料福利网 will never make unsolicited scholarship offers or admission offers.
- 黑料福利网 does not offer scholarships or financial aid before receiving an application for admission. Applicants are assessed for scholarships during the official application evaluation process as well as via submissions to the International Student Scholarship Application. We will never offer scholarships or financial aid to anyone who has not applied to the University.
- 黑料福利网 will never send official documents, including offers of admission or scholarships, through WhatsApp, SMS or any social media platform.
- Official communications from 黑料福利网 are always sent from @yorku.ca email addresses. 黑料福利网 only accepts applications to undergraduate programs through the Ontario University Application Centre (OUAC) or directly to 黑料福利网. You will never be asked to pay an application fee to an individual or 黑料福利网 representative. For more information on our application process, visit the How to Apply and the I've Applied web page.
- If you receive an offer of admission to one of our undergraduate programs, please note the official offer letter will appear in your applicant portal on MyFile, including any required deposits or payments and/or scholarship offers.
- It is not possible, or legal, for a 黑料福利网 representative to offer you a study permit. Admitted students must apply for a study permit through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), which is a department of Canada鈥檚 federal government.
- 黑料福利网 also does not offer guaranteed admission or university-level courses through high schools of any type.
- 黑料福利网 would never use automated calling to ask you to confirm details over the phone. If you received an automated phone call, know that this is not 黑料福利网. If you do receive a phone call, it would be from an actual York U representative, but we will never ask you to accept an offer through the phone or ask for payment. Offers of admissions and scholarships will always be sent to you via email, and will require you to log in to your applicant portal on MyFile.
If you are uncertain about any offer or solicitation, you can always contact our admissions office.

- Prompts to enter credentials, download an attachment, or send money.
- Language that is threatening or suggests great urgency (e.g., 鈥渄o this or your account will be terminated鈥).
