Barnard Fall 2017 Transfer

Hi everyone! anxious but excited for our decisions :slight_smile: best of luck to you all! x

Are their any threads about Barnard transfers from last year?

@Transfer510 No problem!

As for the forum I was referring to my previous post, I skimmed over this one to get a gist of what type of transfer students Barnard looks for: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/barnard-college/1860769-transfer-applicant-thread-fall-2016-p1.html

There are quite a few on CC, but I think this one is the most popular and most recent one featuring profiles and decisions.

Wow im so not going to get in, my high school GPA was like 3.79 and my test scores were bad. Lol im already sad

hey everyone! anyone hear back yet? I’m assuming we have a week or so left to wait- so nervous/excited!

@lovelybowie8 haven’t heard anything back, but i think we’re looking at the second week of may…time is going by so slowly hahaha

How much do people get waitlisted at Barnard?

Anyone have any idea what day we hear back? Columbia is posting their results next week…

Hopefully that’s a good sign that we’ll find out soon!

Did anyone get asked for financial aid documents?

@design123321 Since Barnard isn’t connected to IDOC, I sent copies of my financial aid stuff via mail. It’s weird – they didn’t really offer me direct confirmation regarding whether or not my information was received, nor is it really listed in the application portal either…

Did anyone who submitted financial aid documents ever receive confirmation or ways to access it online? :T

I wonder how many people applied this year! I know past years threads have been so busy haha

@britatos Financial aid department generally sends an email with a link and ID to log in to the financial aid portal where you look under the “documents” tab to see what they have marked as received and what needs to be provided. I think you had to have provided your FASFA and CSS Profile by the application date. I do not know if they will accept those now, but you could call or email them.

Does anyone have an idea of when decisions might be released?

I called and they said “early to mid-may” which could mean anything :confused:

@maximus22 I definitely sent in all my materials before the deadline – however, I only received confirmation for my FAFSA and CSS from the FA department (and only after I emailed them). I was just a little concerned since they never forwarded me an ID or link to their financial aid portal, but I’ll be sure to email and/or call them now. Thanks!

Do you guys know if they ever defer students to the spring semester?

@okaycool Going through past threads, it looks like we will definitely be hearing back next week, not this week.

Previous decision release dates:

Monday, May 14, 2013
Tuesday, May 13, 2014
Friday, May 14, 2015
Thursday, May 12, 2016
