FAQ

If I'm coming to New York City from abroad to take a class, what do I need to do?

Foreign/Non-native English-speaking Students

Gotham welcomes English-speaking students from outside the U.S. in our New York City classes. However, we are not an accredited college or university and therefore do not have the forms necessary to obtain a student visa. Our recommendation is that interested students from abroad obtain a travel or tourist visa and count us among the cultural activities available to do while in New York City, like attending museums, readings, and seminars. Unfortunately, Gotham does not provide housing or help students from abroad find housing. Please check our hotel suggestions for New York City.

What happens if I get on your mailing list?

Miscellaneous

You will receive newsletters and other mailings with writing advice, news, and special deals. We will not give your contact information to any other organization, so you will only receive Gotham communications. You will find a sign-up box on the footer of this page, and you can learn more about our e-communications here.
