How to accept/decline admission?

Hi there,

I am an admitted student for class of 2021 and I need to respond to my offer of admission. Could someone provide the link to the online portal? I think I deleted the email containing the link… Thank you!

I’d suggest you email Barnard admissions at admissions@barnard.edu

You can also phone. See : https://barnard.edu/contact-us

It could be a security problem for someone to disclose a private link – so I don’t think it would be wise for any admitted student to share any information with you that is not publicly listed on Barnard’s web site.

I’ve noticed you have posted the exact same question in the Mount Holyoke forum, complete with the claim of having deleted the email with the link.

It is not necessary to formally decline an offer of admission and it is only proper to accept one-- so I don’t know what your reasons are, but I would suggest that if you need to accept an offer of admission to any college in particular, that you do so by contacting that college

Thank you for the info. I had mistakenly thought that I needed to respond to all offers of admission, either by accepting or declining them, but I guess that’s not necessary.
I’ll contact Barnard tomorrow, just in case. Thanks for the advice!

No - it’s polite to notify the school when you are declining admission, but not required. And an email that clearly identifies who you are would be perfectly acceptable.

It’s easy – and considerate – to respond to each school. Do it.

Ok, will do! Thank you.
