Admission Events

The Office of Admission offers online appointments for prospective applicants and family members who would like to meet individually with an admission counselor to identify best-fit programs and discuss the admission process.

Graduate admission appointments offer potential graduate students the opportunity to meet individually with an admission counselor to identify the best-fit program and discuss the admission process at The New School for Social Research. 

Virtual drop-in hours are available on Tuesdays from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. ET. Prospective graduate students can request an in-person appointment by emailing [email protected]. Appointments are limited in January, February, and March, when staff review applicants for fall admission. 

Student-led campus tours introduce visitors to our academic facilities. Student housing is not included. Only those with appointments will be able to tour campus. Please register for the tour most appropriate for your interests:

Graduate Programs Campus Tours are 60-minute student-led campus tours that introduce visitors to the graduate academic facilities at Parsons School of Design, the Schools of Public Engagement, and/or The New School for Social Research. These tours provide a general and broad overview of campus buildings used by graduate students at The New School. Those seeking a more focused introduction to a particular area of study are encouraged to connect directly with program chairs or faculty. 

If you are unable to schedule an in-person tour, we encourage you to take our virtual tour and connect with us through one of our many additional online events.

These events are open fairs for prospective graduate students, at which Admission representatives staff a table on behalf of The New School. They serve as an initial point of contact between students and colleges without the need for students to travel to visit the college itself, allowing them to interact with admission representatives from a wide range of post-secondary institutions.
