The Registration Office registers students for classes, charges tuition and fees, and processes course changes and withdrawals. Information regarding the specific hours for registration is distributed to all students prior to the registration period.

During registration, student advisors from each department are available for consultation with students. Students must confer with their student advisor in person or via email before completing registration. An advisor’s written approval is required for all course registrations. Registration must be completed during the registration period. Registration procedures are mailed to new students in advance of registration and explained during The New School for Social Research orientation scheduled at the beginning of each semester. Continuing students register online during April and May for the fall semester, and during November for the spring semester.

The Bursar’s Office will mail a schedule of classes and an invoice for tuition and fees. Students should verify the accuracy of the schedule. A student is not registered for, and will not receive credit for, courses not appearing on the schedule.

Registration is not complete until payment or payment arrangements have been made. Students who do not register and complete payment arrangements by the deadline will incur a $150 late fee. The deadlines for completing registration will not be extended because of delays in clearing registration holds. For more information, contact the Office of University Registration.
