How hard is it to get into Barnard Bound?

I really really really want to go and be able to be on Barnard’s campus–I’m from California and this would be my first/only chance to visit NYC and Barnard’s campus.

Does anyone know how competitive it is? How many people are usually chosen to be in the program?

@charmandquark did you get in?

@charmandquark - we’re in California and my daughter just heard back yesterday. Are you going?

It seems that people who were accepted received their decisions yesterday… if I didn’t get one, is it safe to assume that I got rejected? :–/

@ You might want to check your spam mail. D1 was calling Mt Holyoke everyday the week she expected to hear back about Focus on Diversity - the email had gone straight to spam. In fact, MHC contacted her about why she hadn’t turned in the parent authorization forms.

I notice you had also applied to WOW. I hope you and D1 get to meet and commiserate over senior year together.

@winnvanmeter Unfortunately, there is nothing in the spam box–thank you for the reminder though. I hope I get to meet your daughter at Williams too!

Accepted and attending! This definitely makes up for my WOW rejection! Hope to see you all later this fall :slight_smile:

Hey all! This is super late, but I will be going to Barnard Bound this fall! I’m super excited to visit the campus for the first time and meet all of you. :slight_smile: @incalescent @winnvanmeter @exl028

@charmandquark @incalescent did you guys get emails after you RSVP?

I got in!!! Also didn’t receive any emails after rsvp @ex1028 @charmandquark @incalescent

@exl028 they emailed me my Amtrak ticket on the 28th!

@incalescent @Marrsnation @exl028 Nope! No extra emails. I assume it’s because they’re arranging for me to fly over there.

@charmandquark i got an email saying i RSVP but yeah i assume they are arranging travel

@charmandquark @Marrsnation @exl028 I also received the “thanks for RSVPing” email. I’m pretty sure the reason why I received my Amtrak ticket so early was because I RSVP’ed the day I got my acceptance :slight_smile: But no worries, I’m sure you’ll all get your materials by the date the email mentioned. I’m so excited to go and meet you all!

@incalescent @Marrsnation @exl028 As I am to meet all of you! (Is that how you’d word it…? Ya’ll get my point). :smiley:

@charmandquark @Incandescent @Marrsnation AWESOME IM SO EXCITED !

Got my flight itinerary

I’m coming from Georgia

Congratulations to all of you! D1 got her ticket info too - flying in from LA.

One more week :smiley:
