Student Support

Student Support works with students to help them navigate non-academic challenges, distressing experiences, and crisis situations. We listen to students' concerns and work with them to develop a support plan. As student advocates, we offer various forms of support to students and The New School community by:

  • Providing support and advocacy to students navigating challenges that may affect university life
  • Connecting students to supportive resources on and off campus
  • Taking student reports of incidents of sexual violence, domestic/intimate partner violence, sexual harassment, and stalking
  • Responding to and managing critical incidents involving students
  • Managing the health leave process to ensure that students receive personalized support and information that allows them to successfully return to the university
  • Training faculty, staff, and students to recognize and respond to students in distress
