Welcome to The New School Go Abroad!

Study Abroad is an enriching and rewarding part of your academic experience at The New School! Semester and short-term programs are open to students throughout the university. It’s never too early to start planning for study abroad. In fact, the earlier the better! Whether you are a first-year student thinking about spending your junior year abroad, or are considering a summer international internship, we look forward to supporting you in your upcoming global adventure.

Here are the next steps in your study abroad journey:

1. Review the list of approved programs by school and major and any major-specific study abroad requirements. Many departments at The New School have a list of pre-approved programs that their students can participate in. Approved programs are programs that were reviewed by your major department and determined to work well with major requirements. In addition, many departments at The New School have requirements for when their students can go abroad. You can find all of this information on the approved programs by school and major page linked above.

2. Speak with your Academic Advisor about your plans to study abroad. You are required to maintain progress toward your academic degree while studying abroad. This means that the credits you receive from study abroad need to count towards your graduation requirements. We recommend that you identify 1-3 programs you are interested in and bring that information along with information about classes you plan to take while abroad to your Academic Advisor for review. Information about which courses you can take abroad can be found on that specific program's direct website. You can find your Academic Advisor and schedule an appointment with them in Stellic.

3. Review general study abroad policies and familiarize yourself with the application process. Please make sure you review this information thoroughly before opening an application for study abroad.

4. Reach out to the Study Abroad Office with any questions. Once you have a good understanding of the study abroad process, you can email the Study Abroad Office with any specific questions you may have throughout the application process. The Study Abroad Office can provide support and information regarding the programs you are interested in, requirements for study abroad, timelines and deadlines, financial policies, application instructions, and more.
