New School is a wonderful school, small classes and very involved student and faculty. As students we also benefit from great lectures and organized events involving highly recognized professionals in fields from fashion design to sustainable engineering. This school is everything I expected and more, after years of going to a traditional 4 yr college coming to New School was a breath of fresh air.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get involved! Talk to advisors, financial aid, and even set up meetings with faculty in schools or departments you are interested in, the more you know the better it is for you as a student as you become familiar with the way things work at New School.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
This is not a school in which you can skip class and just check the professors notes online. New School's classes are small and very student-teacher involved. The classes require much attention and in my cases many essays or long papers to turn in. In return though you would have learned much about the subject and gotten to know your classmates and professor. At New School you are not invisible as a student which will be of great benefit through out your academic career.
