    "I toured a lot of schools before The New School, waiting for that third-grade crush feeling. But the tour and the facilities here — laser cutters, printers, dorms — inspired me."

    Due to concerns about the novel coronavirus, The New School has made the difficult decision to temporarily close our Welcome Center and suspend campus tours and on-site events. Meanwhile, we are committed to keeping you virtually connected with our admissions team and online events at The New School. Experience our immersive virtual campus tour, register for an online information session, and explore a selection of videos that give you a sense of the culture, coursework, and student life at our university.
