***Barnard College C/O 2019 RD Discussion***

@rachaell‌ Yessss! I can’t even begin to tell you the variety of eateries there are. It’s insane! And don’t get me started on the art galleries!

@triantafilla‌ that sounds amazing ! I can’t wait!!!

i’m from chicago, IL. i visited barnard during last year’s spring break and fell in love. getting accepted would be amazing, but i’m not super optimistic. i know that they value GPA a lot and mine is relatively bad. i hope all of us get in… i hate reading threads from past years and seeing that they rejected some awesome posters. ik everything will be fine in the end but still :frowning:

What is your gpa ? I have never visited but wish I could @nat97xo‌

Hi-Hi guys im from Ca too! I applied to Barnard and this is the only school I have been thinking about for the past few months. Hopefully all our dreams come true <3

I’m from Vermont, and Barnard is my top choice too! I’m so worried because my ECs aren’t that great, but hopefully the college admission gods smile down upon us. I wish we could just skip to the fourth week of March already!

Barnard is my top choice! I did their summer program this year and really loved everything about the school. On my portal, I have a slot for the final high school transcript as well but I can’t remember if it’s always been there. Though I want it to be an indicator of acceptance, I can’t imagine admissions doing something so obvious before they officially release decision.

@rachaell i have a 3.24 :frowning:

Just by curiosity did anyone do an art/music supplement? :slight_smile:

That’s not too bad @nat97xo‌

@triantafilla‌ I did the art supplement also don’t stress too much on gpa @nat97xo‌ we are on the same boat :smiley: I have a 3.24 UW and a 3.56 W but hopefully they see past our numbers and how much we can bring to Barnard!

@triantafilla‌ i submitted a few short stories

“Please be aware that we are in the process of tracking and filing tens of thousands of documents. Do not worry if some items you sent are not listed yet – not all materials are received at once so they may not be tracked at the same time.”

I was looking over my app, and I just saw the tens of thousands of documents part. Uhm, last year the received over 5,600 applications. Does this mean they have doubled? Im actually really scared

@ArmyofOne‌ I doubt that’s the case. Each applicant has to submit a lot of documents (SATs, transcripts, essays etc) so 6k applicants could easily generate 20k or more docs to file.

Almost guys <3 best of luck

Does Barnard offer to fly students in after they’ve been accepted?

No, I believe that is only offered if you receive the B.O.P Scholarship @rachaell‌

I really hope they tell us when they’re going to release the decisions today!

Is it bad that my financial aid is incomplete because my non custodial parents will not have their taxes done by april

I had the same problem you should email your admissions director and tell her your situation. They gave me an extension and i just sent in my parents taxes yesterday. @rachaell‌
