Financial Services
To learn more about the following services, log in to MyNewSchool:

• Electronic Refunds directly to your bank account
• Payment Plan
• Web Check/ACH Payment
• Designate Authorized Users
• Electronic Invoices
• Financial Aid Status

In an effort to offer greater access to invoice and payment information, as well as reduce our impact on the environment, we issue electronic invoices. Initially you will receive a paper pre-bill at your official mailing address and thereafter you will receive notification to your New School (@newschool.edu) email account when an electronic invoice is ready to be viewed.

For more information, visit the Student Financial Services website, or contact Student Financial Services at 212.229.8930, or send an email to sfs@newschool.edu.
