Start a New Organization

Student organizations contribute greatly to campus community and life at The New School. Although we boast a strong community of student organizations, there are many opportunities to create new organizations that serve previously unmet student interests.

We welcome new organizations and encourage you to get started by reviewing the benefits and requirements in this brief slideshow outlining the steps to registration. By visiting the Resources page, you can also find information on important dates.
