Advisors

Students are assigned advisors on the basis of their program of study or academic year or, in some cases, their last name. Graduate students' program directors or chairs sometimes serve as their advisors. Visit Starfish to find your advisor and to make an appointment, or access Starfish through my.newschool.edu.
