Semester Programs: NSSR

NSSR horizontal

Students at The New School’s New School for Social Research may be eligible to take part in oversees study opportunities with other NSSR international partners. To learn more about oversees study opportunities with these partners, students should contact: nssradvising@newschool.edu.

Program Providers are organizations that provide students studying in the US with the opportunity to study elsewhere. These programs usually provide housing, insurance, and on-site support throughout the entirety of a student's study abroad experience. All program providers adhere to a rolling admissions policy, so students are always advised to apply for these programs sooner rather than later. Program providers will bill students directly for their program fees. Students will not receive a tuition bill from The New School but will receive a bill for miscellaneous student fees. New School provided scholarships cannot be used to cover program provider fees. As such, New School provided scholarships will be removed for the semester students are abroad and will resume upon their return to campus.

Exchange Programs are international universities with which the New School holds an exchange agreement. Each year the exchange partner agrees to accept a certain number of New School students and the New School agrees to accept a certain number of the exchange partner’s students. As such, exchange programs may be competitive as there are a limited number of spaces we can offer. Exchange program applications are reviewed for nomination after the application deadline passes. Students will pay New School tuition and fees as they normally would and there is no change in financial aid. In addition, all students attending an exchange program will be billed and enrolled in and Chubb Travel and Emergency insurance.
