These events are open fairs for prospective undergraduate students, at which Admission representatives staff a table on behalf of The New School. They serve as an initial point of contact between students and colleges without students needing to travel to visit the college itself, allowing them to interact with admission representatives from a wide range of post-secondary institutions.

Our Undergraduate Information Sessions are 45- to 60-minute presentations by Admission staff and/or faculty, designed for students interested in applying for admission. These sessions not only provide information about Lang but also highlight the other schools within The New School, including the College of Performing Arts, Parsons School of Design, and Parsons Paris.
