Hi peeps, looking at Parsons for my application list and was wondering what the student body looks like in terms of size. Anyone have an idea about the student population at Parsons? Grateful for your help!
Parsons School of Design, which is a part of The New School, has quite a diverse and dynamic student body coming from all corners of the world. As for its size, Parsons is quite intimate compared to some other design schools; the total student population varies from year to year but typically hovers around 5,500. This includes both undergraduate and graduate students. This allows for small classroom environments promoting a tight-knit community and greater engagement with faculty members. If you thrive in smaller academic settings and prefer personalized learning experiences, Parsons might be a good fit for you. However, always remember that each student's experience can be unique depending on their major and their individual approach to their college life.
