The New School - Graduate Programs

The New School offers some of the nation's most distinguished graduate school programs in art and design, the performing arts, media and communications, creative writing, humanities and the social sciences, professional management and public policy, and international affairs. Integrating the New School tradition of combining in-class and in-the-field work, each program exposes graduate students to an exciting and challenging course of study headed by a faculty of artists, scholars, and professionals who practice what they teach.

Prospective students are invited to meet with program faculty, current students, and admissions counselors at information sessions (dates for upcoming events are listed on our admission webpage) or to schedule an appointment with an admissions counselor.
