    Welcome to Bank Street's Graduate School Application

    Graduating from Bank Street means more than earning a degree, it means joining a lifelong community of educators and leaders known for their expertise, equity-driven practice, and ability to create meaningful change across schools, nonprofits, policy, and beyond. This lifelong community opens doors, offers mentorship, and supports your growth throughout your career.

    We're excited you're here and exploring what your future could look like with us!

    Application Basics:

    • This is your chance to shine! Be sure to reflect on your educational and life experiences, and use the application as an opportunity to share why you have decided to apply to Bank Street. 

    • The entire application will be completed online, and in most cases, a virtual interview is required. Information regarding an interview is provided (if required) following an initial review of your application. 

    • The left-hand side contains a navigation menu that will lead you through all of the application components once you have selected your program of interest.

    • Domestic transcripts and test scores directly from the issuing institution should be sent to gradadmissions@bankstreet.edu to ensure they are received and processed. 

    • International transcripts must go through a course-by-course evaluation from a NACES approved organization for admissions consideration. These are third party evaluation organizations. Undergraduate coursework must be the equivalent of a US bachelor’s degree. If you are applying as an international student, visit our website for additional requirements.

    • When you start your application, you'll receive a link to your application portal. This portal will allow you to see whether or not we've received materials like transcripts, letters of recommendation, and test scores (for international applicants). Please note that only complete applications will be reviewed.

    Bank Street Graduate School of Education supports our students to become professionals who seek to understand individuals with an array of strengths, linguistic backgrounds, and learning challenges. Therefore, we understand the value of having students from diverse backgrounds who have an understanding into their own strengths and struggles. These insights will guide you as you develop your professional knowledge and skills. Please keep this in mind as you reflect on your own journey through this application process. 


    We look forward to learning more about you through your application! If you have any questions, do not hesitate to give us a call at 212-875-4404 or email us at gradadmissions@bankstreet.edu.
