Students who'll be attending

<p>Hi, I’m from South Florida and was recently accepted. Just wondered where everyone else was from who’ll be going in the fall…</p>

<p>Where in South Florida? Always cool to see Floridians at the 'nard.</p>

<p>(I'm an alumna, but I'm from Clearwater. Which isn't really SOUTH Florida, I guess)</p>

<p>new jersey</p>

<p>northern california</p>

<p>from boca, primefactor</p>

<p>My daughter has decided -- she called today and asked me to send the deposit to Barnard. I've never been happier about spending $400.</p>

<p>So now I'm a Barnard mom. :)</p>

<p>I got in, but I'm from Atlanta and am worried about fitting in at a northern school. Are there many preppy Southern belle types at Barnard?</p>

<p>yes.
especially this year, admissions worked hard to attract from the south, and the midwest.
barnard women basically are southern belles.. with a lot of feminism and a little bit of snow and rain thrown in. and most arent actually from the south.</p>

<p>Gingerspice, you might want to send a PM to churchmusicmom -- her daughter is a freshman at Barnard this year & they are also from the Atlanta area.</p>

<p>Absolutely! PM away! She not only " fits in" she LOVES it there!!!!</p>

<p>Though I would NOT call her the "preppy Southern Belle type" AT ALL.</p>

<p>I am going from New York. Just from a different borough. NY is very diverse, Ginger, don't worry about not fitting in.</p>

<p>Hey, Ginger. I'm from Atlanta too (well, Sandy Springs now). I absolutely love it here, and hopefully you will too! What area are you from? Let me know if you have any questions!</p>

<p>thanks for all the responses! now i feel a lot better about going up north!</p>

<p>hi! i really need help! i thought since you mentioned barnard you know somehting about it and could help, i accepted tufts' offer of admission, but barnard just got me off their waitlist..where should i got-- i was gonna major in International Relations and minor in Media and Communications at Tufts....help!~</p>

<p>wait, sorry, not sure i understand. you're got into tufts and barnard and are going to tufts? what is your question?</p>
