English: A vector drawing of the University of York coat of arms copied from those seen around the campus and on images shown online. The mantling of the helmet should not be symmetrical; nonetheless, it is still faithful to the blazon, which is:

Arms: Azure, on a chevron ermine three books fesswise, each with two clasps downwards, Or. Crest: On a wreath Or and azure, Out of a mural crown argent, masoned sable, two keys in saltire Or and silver, wards upward and outward, surmounted by a rose also argent, barbed and seeded proper.

Motto: In limine sapientiae
