Being a college student in New York City can be expensive. However, The New School has opened me to more opportunities and experiences we can access for free or at a discount! From museums to subscriptions, here are some things you should be utilizing as a New School student that I wish I had known sooner!
FRee new york times subscription
Did somebody say free?! As a Journalism+Design student, I was ecstatic to find out we can access a free subscription to The New York Times. Take advantage of this, a lot of course readings consist of Times articles and it’s always helpful to have a free subscription where you can access these documents without having to worry about a paywall.
free THE moma admission
How cool is it that we can access one of the best-known contemporary art museums for free?! The MoMA is a great place to visit all year round. New exhibitions and events are always happening. You’re bound to discover something new with every visit. New School students receive one free admission and can buy up to five $5 guest tickets per visit. To obtain free admission or discounted guest tickets, don’t forget to bring a valid New School ID card to the ticketing desk.
*Free admission also applies to MoMA PS1
free rubin museum of art admission
Just a ten-minute walk from the University Center is the Rubin Museum of Art. The Rubin Museum of Art has a collection from the Himalayas and surrounding regions. This is a great place to visit after a class or on a day off with friends. To obtain free admission, current full-time students must show their New School ID card at the lobby information desk.
