<p>Is adjusting to life at Barnard really hard? Is it difficult to make new friends and the like?</p>
<p>Rose, I think if you do a search on the Barnard boards you might find more info than at this time of year when current Barnard students are very much into exams. That being said, I understand that Barnard does a pretty good job of actively encouraging transfers to be integrated into the student body and quickly comfortable on campus…for example, I think they have their own orientation at the beginning of the semester and I believe there is a transfer “floor” in the dorms.</p>
