Advising & Registration

Academic advising begins with the selection of classes for your first semester and continues throughout your time at The New School. Academic advisors are here to help you define your goals, identify learning opportunities aligned with your academic interests, assist you with understanding university policies and requirements, and much more! Your academic advisor will be assigned to you on the basis of your last name, year, program of study, or major. 

Fall incoming students in most programs will be contacted by their Student Success academic advisors to coordinate advising and course registration in June. You will receive an email with more information and registration instructions specific to your program. 

Transfer Credit & Advanced Standing

The New School will evaluate examination credit and work completed at accredited universities to be applied toward our undergraduate degree programs. Scores for Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, A Level, and other leaving exams can be reviewed for potential transfer credit upon receipt of official transcripts. To learn more, please review our Transfer Credit Policies.
