On this page you’ll find a checklist of required application materials for our BFA and BBA programs, as well as specific instructions for students applying from international high schools or colleges, students whose native language is not English, transfer students, homeschooled students, and students seeking readmission to The New School.
All listed deadlines, with the exception of Early Action and Early Decision, are our priority deadlines. We will continue to accept applications after these deadlines if space is still available in our programs, but we recommend applying as early as possible. We also urge applicants to submit their portfolio as soon as possible after receiving the link to do so. We do not recommend waiting until the portfolio deadlines to submit your portfolio.
Early Action and Early Decision applications submitted or completed after the deadline may be rolled over for Regular Decision consideration in the spring. The Admission Committee will make a decision on your application only after all the required materials have been received.
All applicants are encouraged to view our Undergraduate Application Process presentation for a helpful overview of our application plans and required materials.
