YPIE College Zone FAQs
Where is the College Zone?
The YPIE College Zone is located at 92 Main Street, Yonkers, NY 10701.
How do I get there?
Click here to find public bus routes from each high school to the YPIE College Zone.
How do I enter?
Enter on Main Street between Chase Bank and The Pizza Place - look for the black awning that says "YPIE College Zone.” Select “YPIE” on the touchpad next to the door.
When do I attend?
At least once a week, Monday-Thursday from 3:30-5:30. Students are welcome to come right after school to work on homework and eat snacks until class begins at 3:30. We are open on Fridays by appointment for Student Advisory Board meetings, homework help, study groups, and Majors Lab (work time to prepare for Majors competitions).
What happens if I don’t show up?
Parents/guardians will receive a text message by 4:00 if their student has not shown up on their scheduled days. If students wish to leave before 5:30, YPIE needs to talk to a parent/guardian on the phone to confirm.
What if I can’t attend on my scheduled day?
If a student is going to be absent, please have a parent/guardian call (914-377-4882 option 2) or email (programs@ypie.org) to let us know. If we only hear from a student that they are not attending, we will still text home.
