What is ASAYU?
Actuarial Student Association @ York University is one of 250 student based
clubs at York University. Our purpose is to create a friendly and helpful
community for all Mathematics for Commerce – Actuarial Stream students plus all
Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, and other major students who are interested
in entering the field of actuarial science in some time in their career. We
provide a variety of events throughout the year, our highlight being the
Actuarial Students National Association (ASNA) annual convention.
History of ASAYU
Actuarial Student Association @ York University was originally formed in 2004 by
Elena Stoyanova in the hopes of fostering growth in the actuarial student body.
Today, the club’s presidency has been taken over by Alanna Elbaum with the help
of other enthusiastic executives to expand the actuarial community.
Benefits of Joining ASAYU
Students who seek to take the actuarial path for their career should not
hesitate to participate in the club. You will receive an incredible amount of
information and knowledge needed to get prepared for the SOA’s exams, and
Validation by Educational Experience (VEE). You can also find out what certain
Math courses offered at York will help you towards the preparation of the exams
and obtaining the VEE. The club, with the help of Club Infinity (Undergraduate
Mathematics and Statistics Club @ York), will provide you with past exams of the
most of the Math courses offered at York for your maximum academic results. You
can also connect with other actuarial or Math students to buy and sell
textbooks. ASAYU will also create study groups for preparing for the exams and
also for certain Math courses offered at York. The list goes on and on...
But the best part of joining ASAYU is to enjoy your success at York and in the
future. Math and statistics can be dreadful, and if we work together, as a team
with the same visions and ambitions, the University experience will be more
rewarding, and the network you’ve made within the club with other students will
assist you in your future.
Good luck and we look forward to seeing you!
