Admissions Liaisons are senior New School for Social Research graduate students who have been appointed by the Office of Admissions to provide prospective applicants with information about the nature of academic life in their respective departments. They are available to discuss the kinds of research and study that can be pursued in their programs, the nature of particular courses, student life at The New School, and similar matters. They can also arrange for class visits so that prospective students can experience at first hand the type of educational opportunities provided by The New School for Social Research.
The Admissions Liaisons can be contacted initially at the e-mail addresses below. Thereafter prospective applicants can continue to communicate with them via e-mail or arrange for a telephone conversation or an in-person visit. We are sure that you will find them friendly, informative, and helpful.
Questions regarding application and admission policies and procedures should be directed to the New School for Social Research Office of Admissions. Please e-mail socialresearchadmit@newschool.edu or contact Robert Mac Donald, Director of Admissions, at 1-212-229-5700 ext. 3007, (e-mail MacdonaR@newschool.edu), or Henry Watkin, Associate Director of Admissions, at 1-212-229-5700 ext. 3011, (e-mail WatkinH@newschool.edu).
