Jane got a 2250 on the SAT, took ten AP classes, and won a national photography contest. She got into The New School early decision, and now she's going to Parsons AND Eugene Lang. I'm crazy jealous...

A university for students who - at some point in their lives - decided "education" means more than vomiting up good grades.
Schmoe: Hey, do you remember our high school valedictorian?
Joe: Yeah, what happened to her anyway?
Schmoe: She decided she was sick of dancing at CollegeBoard's feet like an idiot circus poodle. Now she's a published slam poet at The New School!

A progressive, famous, non-traditional university in New York City's Greenwich Village neighborhood.
You know you go to The New School when most of your classmates are bilingual or trilingual, a third of them have written books, and the girl who sits next to you opened at Carnegie Hall last week. (Yet for all their fancypants achievements, you know that your classmates are really just laid-back neo-hippies.)
Peace, love, and Nietzsche, man.

It's said you can't graduate from The New School unless you participate in at least one weird protest.

A high-ranking university in New York City. Despite being a "peace and guitars"-type college, New School is characterized by its brutal homework loads, spartan attendance policy, long academic years, and very few days off.
Basically where you can get a kick-ass education...after getting your ass kicked.

The New School where even if you went here for less than a month we’ll consider you an alumni if you have clout! Most of the students are wealthy internationals who spend all their money on clothes or drugs. If you go to The New School and don’t end up with a nicotine addiction you’re part of the 1% but you probably don’t have any friends since the only sense of community comes from smoking outside the UC. Any friends you do have don’t care about who you are as a person as long as you’ll look good in pictures with them. You’re not a true new school student until you have a mental breakdown that leads you to dye or shave your head. Despite costing ~$75k to go to the school and dorm the cafeteria does not do meal swipes, they say fuck you give us more money and charge you at least $15 per meal. As well as the caf fucking you over so will registrar! You’ll never get the classes you actually want even though you’re going thousands of dollars into to debt to be able to take said classes. The university center is so heavy it’s sinking the block. For a design school everything is poorly designed, especially the elevators. All of the dorms feel like caves and probably have never been properly cleaned. The New School definitely doesn’t give a fuck about you, just your money and clout.
