The New School - General Credit A student interested in earning undergraduate college credits may register on a general credit basis for most courses listed in this bulletin up to a maximum of 24 credits. Note that the number of credits awarded for any course is listed at the end of the course description. As a General Credit student you are classified as non-matriculated. You are not a candidate for any New School degree.
Credits earned are undergraduate credits.
Credits for courses taken prior to matriculation in a degree may be applicable to a degree subject to evaluation at the time of matriculation. General Credit registration for any course should be completed before the first session of class, and any change in status must be made before the third session. All General Credit registrations for 9 or more credits require approval of an educational advisor and must be completed in person. Please retain the Course Schedule and bring it to class with you. If you have not received your Course Schedule by the day your course begins, or if you have lost or forgotten it, you will be admitted to class provided your name appears on the teacher's roster.
