The New School’s continuing education courses, offered onsite and online, run from three to nine weeks and are perfectly timed for summer. Study the humanities and social sciences, business, foreign languages, media studies, performing arts, photography and more, or take 15-session course on professional food writing. Take individual classes for credit—then apply those credits toward a BA in The New School’s liberal arts program. Small class sizes, superior resources and a renowned faculty make it an amazing experience.
