<p>is this true.
Umm
because on PR stats.com this one guy said he got into barnard and loves it.</p>
<p>Barnard only accepts women, but there is a summer pre-college program that is co-ed. So maybe that is the source of confusion? See:

Another possible explanation: you could have a male Columbia student who takes most of his classes at Barnard, and loves it there; there are a few majors that are housed at Barnard (for example, architecture) so Columbia students in those majors would definitely end up studying primarily at Barnard, once they had satisfied the Columbia core.</p>
<p>Another source of males at Barnard is timing. He may have to take a class at Barnard because of conflicts with his other classes. This is most common in Math, where you can't tell by looking at the class whether it is a Columbia or Barnard professor. On the other hand in my daughter's Bio class there were about three males and 172 young women. (Why didn't I think of going to Columbia?)</p>
<p>Columbia students, male and female, can also just choose to take certain classes at Barnard rather than Columbia because of the availability of more individual attention from profs and generally smaller class size. There is a great deal of overlap in classes offered by both schools. My D and I were told, by a tenured English Lit Prof at Columbia, that Columbia students would be well-advised to take as many classes at Barnard as they could!</p>
<p>ok
cool
well too bad i dont have the grades to get into columbia.
It would be pretty cool to take a class being 1 boy with over 150 girls
haha
yeah that'd be fun</p>
<p>You might want to try Randolph-Macon Woman's College -- <a href="http://www.rmwc.edu/%5B/url%5D">http://www.rmwc.edu/</a> -- they will be accepting men for fall 2007.</p>
