Your admissions department is a shame on your school.As a person who has been to Canada for 2 years and all of my applications are completed by myself, when I applied for this school, the experience I gave was really poor. No admissions department like a high school like this can be so irresponsible. When I applied for jazz music study, I applied for a total of 7 schools. No matter whether they recorded or not, I can find the person in charge every time, and I can feel at ease when I ask questions.The guy at the New Schools Admissions Department is called Kevin Smith. I have made two international calls, I have left messages, I have sent countless emails, and I have not answered my question exactly once.If some friends want to apply for this school, if you find that the person in charge is him, there is no response after multiple consultations, please try to complain directly. Or dont apply for this school at all. It is better to apply for a school that ignores people than to apply for another. This is the worst admissions department I have encountered since I applied.We still think twice about junk schools that waste students time playing big names.
Since its establishment, the new college has focused on education in social sciences and humanities, blending progressive ideas generated in the United States with critical philosophy from Europe, and upholding the heritage of ideas since exiled universities. Its philosophy department is one of the few departments in the United States based on complete modern European philosophy training. The emphasized philosophical curriculum contains the thoughts of Aristotle, Locke, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Ziggo, Marx, Nietzsche, Husserl, Heidegger, Freud, Benjamin, Hannah Erland, Wigenstein, Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze and others.In addition, the Frankfurt Schools critical doctrines, such as Horkheimer, Benjamin, Adorno, Markus, Habermas, and others, also have far-reaching effects among many disciplines.In recent years, as the West began to pay attention to the influence of China and India on global affairs, the new college also set up a new research institution, the Indian China Institution.
Fereidoun M. Esfandiary, known as FM-2030, who thought of the new concepts of the human in The New School around 1960, when he began to identify people who adopt transitional technologies, lifestyles and worldviews to posthumanas as transhumans .3 This hypothesis would be based on the work of the British philosopher Max More, who would begin to articulate the principles of transhumanism as a futuristic philosophy in 1990, and to organize in California an intellectual group that since then grew up in what which today is called the international transhumanist movement.

2022-03-14Mostly a positive experience. I will say anyone applying for the PhD in psych that you have to go through their MA program first and once done there’s 0 guarantee of actually getting into the PhD. This year they also moved the internal PhD deadline from February to November with a week’s notice that I had to actively seek out to confirm. Since I have my MA already from another school this aspect of the experience left me very disappointed and I must now apply elsewhere and start all over to finish a PhD…

2018-04-04This school spends so much money on marketing instead of their students. The only good thing going for them is the school’s location, everything else is below the standards. Most of their professors don’t care about their students and have big ego. The New School needs to put students first. That’s their bread and butter. Students are going to do organic marketing if they like u and they will give back years after graduation. Students are the investment. I regret going there, but I only stayed because I was already too deep in the program and was afraid from losing what I already spent of time, money, and effort. 🚽

2018-08-15Students are great, although evidently... some professors need to be fired. And are teaching there because of money, not out the passion to do so. Otherwise, great location and atmosphere for designers and artists.

2020-10-05There are some really good teachers here interested in your academic and occupational life, but what more, that you live a good life.Matthew Jensen is not one of these, but a conceitful artist whom sold out for self image and pleasure at others detriment. Jensen will condescend you while speaking to others, diminishing your confidence and then condescending unto others while speaking to you. Jensen is disloyal, he will be noncommittal, then take one side seemingly for you, then surprise you with betrayal, but placate until he feels he has advantage. He is domineering with art colleagues and friends alike. Once my Buddhist friend, Jensen sold at a Buddhist monk which forsook his path by chain-smoking, oversexualizing a collegiate population, encouraging marijuana usage silently, implying polyamory with in gay relationships, and politically manipulating college administration. He also tries working under the radar scheduling unchastity amongst youth and old age alike within the gay population attempting spreading self-serving viral ideas with what he calls a mushroom cloud. Jensen also does not respect Chastity within clergy members within religions and his overly critical nature will stunt your growth intellectually spiritually and religiously. Feigned compassion. The only way I could be incorrect is if he is possessed in his sleep. He facebooked my mother after being out of contact several years. He blamed me for his poor relationships after being out of contact several years wishing ill health, poor success and bad fortune.Everett Green, Gabriel Gottleib are a couple good ones truly believing in helping the individual ethically reach transcendent understanding, though I think Gottleib is in Ohio.

2016-04-22My daughter was excited to be accepted to this college and made arrangements with admissions, well in advance, to come and sit in on a class and then do a tour of the school.We flew all the way from San Diego to New York for this. This cost me 2 airfares of $950 each, plus 3 nights of hotel accommodation in New York, which is not cheap. Not to mention the cab fares, etc. And the three days I had to take off work.We were told to be there at 11.30 am. We arrived early and checked in. We were told someone would walk her to the class at 11.30 am. At 11.35 am I had to remind them we were there and they started scrambling to find her a class to sit in on!At 11.45 someone came and walked her the the class she was to sit in on. It was a writing class - she was expecting to sit in on a modern art class, which she had told them by email several times and at check in was her interest. The person who walked her to the class pointed it to her and left. The class was to start at 11.55 am. No-one, not a student or a teacher, showed up and so there she sat in the empty classroom not knowing what to do or where to go.We went back to admissions at 12.15 pm. The guy there kinda apologized and said he could put her in another day, even though he knew we had come all the way from San Diego. I explained this would not be feasible. He then came back and said she can go sit in on a class at 1.55 pm. Except she had a tour of the school scheduled (which they had organized) at 2.00 pm and now she had to choose. She chose the tour.I really think that if they are trying to recruit out of state kids with GPAs of 4.4, at $65,000 a year tuition, they could be a little more prepared, organized and respectful.The tour itself was OK. The girl was knowledgeable, but very exhausted and had a very soft voice that no-one could hear.

2013-09-04Excellent Program at The New School. Plenty of courses and concentrations to choose from, faculty advisors are very helpful offering guidance as you develop your self-designed program. The International Field Program offers students hands-on experience working with diverse organizations and provides practical field experience through various work with NGOs, IOs, and government as well as local agencies.
