The New School student account questions
What happens if I have an unpaid balance at The New School?
Any past-due balance triggers a financial hold that blocks future course registration and the release of your diploma. A nonrefundable $247 late payment fee is also charged if you have not paid by the semester due date (August 10 for fall, January 10 for spring, May 30 for summer). The university may also drop you from your courses at any point through the end of the add/drop period if you are not in good financial standing. Contact Student Accounts at myaccount@newschool.edu or 212.229.8930 to discuss payment or payment plan options.
What holds can prevent me from registering at The New School?
Financial holds (any past-due tuition/fee balance) and Academic Advising holds can prevent registration. Financial holds are placed automatically when your account is past due. To clear a financial hold for the current semester, pay the balance in full or enroll in the payment plan; prior-term balances must be paid in full. For advising holds, contact your assigned school/program advisor. You can view all active holds on your account through the MyNewSchool portal at my.newschool.edu.
Where can I check my balance and holds at The New School?
Log in to your student account at my.newschool.edu to view your account balance, invoice, and any active holds. University holds appear in the portal with instructions. Billing invoices are sent to your New School email (@newschool.edu) when they are ready, and you can view and pay your balance directly through the portal. For questions, contact Student Accounts at myaccount@newschool.edu or 212.229.8930.
Who should I contact about my bill or financial aid at The New School?
For billing, payments, refunds, financial holds, or payment plans: contact the Office of Student Accounts at myaccount@newschool.edu or 212.229.8930 (72 Fifth Avenue, 2nd floor). In-person hours: Mon-Thu 10am-5pm, Fri 10am-4:45pm. For FAFSA, scholarships, financial aid awards, or loans: contact Financial Aid at finaid@newschool.edu or 212.229.8930.

Newsletters, club emails, and campus-wide blasts are filtered out. You only get a text when something needs your attention.
Is my The New School email account safe with Email Cheat Code?
