Women's Colleges--right for me?

<p>You might want to check out Barnard … Columbia is literally right across the street and A LOT of campus activities for the two schools are joint (meaning very coed) … in addition virtually all classes are open to students from both schools with no special sign-up process (you sign up for Columbia courses during your regular Barnard sign-up; the courses have a slightly different course code). There are sometimes limits on the number of students allowed to cross-register in a particular course … we’ve been told this is seldom an issue … my daughter has 2 Columbia courses among her 5 courses this fall. Personally I think the Barnard set-up is pretty amazing … you’re attending a LAC with the resourses of a big-time research University across the street and available … and the advantages of a women’s college with guys right across the street and integrated into your daily life.</p>
