The York University Media Awards, or YUMAs, is the campus media's annual booze filled backslap-athon, first held in 2001. Nouse, URY, Vision, Cinematography Society and YSTV traditionally took it turns to arrange an awards evening, in which each society gave out their own awards rather than compete against other societies. In YSTV's case, this involved voting on old favourites, such as Best Show, Best Female and the like. Unlike other societies, YSTV members all have a vote on their categories (and indeed the categories chosen), rather than winners being chosen by a select group. In this respect the cermeony is a light-hearted way to end the year often including joke categories, unlike NaSTA.
2001
The first YUMAs, held at Merchant Adventurer's HallUnverified or incomplete information.
- Outstanding Production - SU Elections 2001 (beating Lazy Lunch and YSTV-am).
- Best Contribution to News and Current Affairs - Thea Darricotte (beating Kerry Beadling).
- Outstanding Achievement - Matt Hammond and Kevin Bowman for Election Night graphics system (beating Polarvision and Jenny Gordon).
- Best Newcomer - Adam Dymond (beating Chris Thornton).
- Lifetime Achievement - Matt Hammond (beating Peter Bowles and Michael Prior-Jones).
- YSTV also won in the inter-society catergory of "Most Glamorous Girls", with Nouse winning Tidiest Office, URY winning Best Quotes, Cinematography Society winning Best Blagging and Vision inevitably winning Most Controversial.
2002
Held at Merchant Adventurer's Hall. Photos can be seen on URY's [website].
- Best On-Screen Personality - Adam Dymond (beating Michael Prior-Jones, Rupert Clifford and Nick Oldham).
- Best Newcomer - Rob Humphrey (beating Giles Burdett).
- Devotion to YSTV - Kevin Bowman (beating Jenny Gordon and Michael Prior-Jones).
- Lifetime Achievement - Jenny Gordon (beating Thea Darricotte and Maurice the effects unit).
2003
Held at The Hilton near Clifford's Tower. After initial discussion in meetings YSTV pulled out after it was realised most of the active members would be immersed in final year exams and practical work the day after the ceremony, and the few who could attend would most probably be ridiculed for the minimal turnout and having to pick up most awards on behalf of others. Jonathan Bufton did however attend after being nominated for his URY show.
2004

- Media Personality Of The Year - James Gallagher for his work at URY,YSTV and Nouse.
