Event guests and visitors must provide proof of up-to-date vaccination, including a booster when eligible; a negative result from a PCR test taken within three days before arrival; or a negative result from a rapid test taken the same day. The following protocols will be in place to ensure a safe and healthy experience for everyone:
Wearing a mask is strongly recommended but not required on campus.
The New School has partnered with CLEAR to utilize Health Pass, an online tool that safely and simply verifies proof of COVID-19 vaccination. To get started, download the CLEAR app and enroll for free: https://clear.app.link/TheNewSchool. For detailed instructions on downloading and using CLEAR, visit the “Campus Visitors” section on our Access to Campus page. Specific questions about using the CLEAR Health Pass to attend an on-campus event can be directed to the event organizer.
For the most efficient entry possible, all guests should create a free CLEAR account and complete the checklist for entry requirements prior to the event.
The New School offered the first academic creative writing workshop in 1931 and pioneered a new philosophy of education. The idea: students would make their own lives and their own stories part of their education. Today, The New School continues to celebrate and cultivate daring and diverse new voices through its Creative Writing program. The value of this approach is reflected in the publications and achievements of our MFA Creative Writing graduates and faculty.
