Our Undergraduate Information Sessions are 45- to 60-minute presentations by admission staff and/or faculty, designed for students interested in applying for admission. These sessions will not only provide information about Lang, but also highlight the other schools within The New School, including the College of Performing Arts, Parsons School of Design, and Parsons Paris. 

Upcoming Information Sessions

These half-day events are for high-school juniors interested in applying for undergraduate programs at The New School. We will provide students and families with information about navigating the college search process, preparing an application for admission, financing a college education, and what it's like to study at The New School in New York City.

Upcoming Preview Days

Get an insider’s look at an education defined by open discussion in small classes, active learning, and immersion in the latest ideas and practices. Our half-day virtual Discover Day events will be hosted by admission counselors, financial aid representatives, current students, and faculty members. They will answer all of your questions about the admission process, academic life, student life, and job opportunities after you graduate. Each Discover Day will include a Lang-specific session, as well as a session for prospective students interested in the BA/BFA Dual-Degree program, which gives students the opportunity to study at Lang and either the School of Jazz and Contemporary Music or Parsons School of Design.
