Powerpoint Templates

Designed with the York brand’s primary and secondary colours and fonts embedded for ease of use, this template can be customized. Template files are available in a widescreen (16:9) format.

Branded layouts featuring the York colours and campus photos are also included for title and section slides. You may change these photos, but the York U logo must appear on the title slide. Campus images can be found in the York U Image collection.

Sub-brands and Faculties can use their locked logo in the presentation.

This Powerpoint template is AODA compliant (last updated April 2021) but you will need to do your part by making accessibility part of your routine (ie. create the document using master slides etc).  To find out how to create accessible powerpoint presentations click here
