The New School

THE NEW SCHOOL: In 1919, a few great minds imagined a school that would rethink the purpose of higher learning. The New School was the result. Today we are the only comprehensive university housing a world-famous design school, a premier liberal arts college, a renowned performing arts college, and a legendary social research school. Our academic centers in New York City, Paris, Shanghai, and Mumbai offer over 10,000 students more than 135 undergraduate and graduate degree programs designed to prepare them to make a more just, beautiful, and better-designed world.
