Hi guys. Barnard is accepting transfers for Spring 2019. I applied twice already and this will be my third time so wish me luck. I couldn’t find a thread for spring transfer this year so I’m starting one!
how many applicants do they accept in the spring
hi applying too!
I believe anywhere from 20-50 transfers are accepted in the Spring
I wonder how many people apply
Do you mind sharing your stats and/or your reason for wanting to transfer to Barnard?

Suuure
I’m from England. Currently at a top 20 world uni (University of Edinburgh).
Stats are a bit more complicated cos of our grading system. We don’t do GPA’s but my grade average is a 60 out of 100, the highest in our class being a 70. I guess thats pretty strong but maybe not the best part of my application. B’s and C’s are the most common grades at Edinburgh so!
I have AAB at A Level in English, Politics and Religion. 3As 2A’s 4B’s at GCSE.
32 ACT, 1330 SAT, so ACT definitely stronger there.
Loooots of extra curriculars…
I won a couple of regional drama awards throughout high school.
I’ve done drama examinations at LAMDA up to Bronze Medal Level.
Had a part-time waitress job during my last two years of high school.
I volunteer at a local foodbank.
I’ve done a production internship at the BBC.
I ran track for my county at an athletics club, but I don’t run professionally anymore, just recreationally.
I was a Scouts youth leader.
I did Army training for two years at school in a Cadet Force.
I write for my university student newspaper as a film critic.
I’ve been in a number of University theatre productions.
I was on the senior body president team.
And I’ve done two summer drama courses, one in New York and one in London.
I’ve got some pretty amazing recommendations from my professors and drama teachers. Probably one of the strongest parts of my application. I don’t think I’m the most outstanding student but I think my essays are hopefully good enough.
Im applying to Barnard because of their theatre program. it’s one of the strongest non-BFA programs and I’d love to be on it. I’ve never applied to Barnard before.
Not asking for any Financial Aid.
So yeah thats me! What about you?

@zangal2477 I’m not sure when but someone on another chat thought it would be today. Where are you transferring from?
It was on the 5th last year. Apparently, we will be notified on the same day as the ED applicants.
