Prospective BA Students

In Gallatin’s undergraduate program, you combine study in your chosen area of concentration with a liberal arts education focusing on significant texts and the history of ideas. Your course work will consist of classes offered within Gallatin as well as in the various schools of New York University. This solid foundation in the liberal arts tradition is augmented by elective components such as arts workshops, advanced writing courses, community learning courses and projects, internships, independent study, private lessons in the arts, and study abroad.

The key to Gallatin’s educational approach is its faculty advisers. Your adviser ensures that your program has depth, breadth, and coherence and is consistent with your career and educational goals. Advisers also supervise and evaluate independent study and internship projects.
