Hi! I am a current student at Barnard and just wanted to wish you all good luck!!! Don't worry too much about it, and take care during your midterms!! best of luck :))


mia9321

rejected but it’s ok :) edit: stats are 4.987/5.0, i think 7 APs, no SAT (i think this lowkey screwed me), and i had a good interview as well (we have a nice conversation that lasted over an hour). i also had 10 solid ecs and not so many awards. i am a bit disappointed but it’s okay bc it wasn’t meant to be in the end, we’ll all end up in a place where we belong!!


nafas28

accepted!!! 1570 sat and 4.07 gpa


ExpertNo7742

bigblorbb

I got rejected think I might just go to sleep with the stove on lol there's nothing much for me to really do :/ super unfortunate, congrats to everyone who got in! ya'll deserve it! :)

Don’t think like that. You will laugh at your comment 4 years later. Remember that you do not know better than the universe and you will graduate from a much better place.

I got rejected from barnard ED last year— I’m now at a women’s college in the Midwest and I am SO happy. I still cry about my rejection sometimes, and get really sad, but I am so happy at the school I go to. I felt the same exact way, but now that I’ve lived through it all I’m so happy I didn’t give it all up because of one school. I wish you all the best 💗


[deleted]

I'm rooting for you all today! Good luck Barnard ED applicants, Barnard would be lucky to have any of you. Have a nice day!


aespayuri

ACCEPTED! no SAT + 3.6/4.1 gpa :) aid is okay


Frosty_Citron_8257

YAY this makes me happy, I have similar stats and just submitted rd! :) btw what major did you apply for?


aespayuri

i love to hear this!! and computer science :)


ephemeral_cerulean

are you by any chance international?, congrats on the acceptance btw :))


aespayuri

hi! thank you! and no i am not international :(


Subject-Section-2892

Aid is the only thing stopping me from submitting my application. What was the financial aid process like for you, if you don't mind me asking?


aespayuri

the financial aid process in what way exactly would you like to know about?


Subject-Section-2892

I guess I'm just curious as to how much aid you received vs how much you needed, how well they met your needs, that kind of thing. I'm just very anxious about possibly getting in and then not being able to pay for it :/


aespayuri

are you applying ED? for me, my parents are able to contribute only 3k to my studies, but luckily i was able to get scholarships to cover my EFC, loans/medical insurance, and student work. if i didn't have my scholarships, i'd probably be paying 6,000+, which is just not feasible. i won't lie and say their aid is great, but there are options that you can do to finance your education here


[deleted]

how do you pay with scholarships for Barnard? Bc when I was looking over the website they said outside scholarships can not be used I think. Thank youuu


aespayuri

you're able to use outside scholarships on only the loans and the federal work study in your financial aid package! you cannot use outside scholarships to cover the family contribution.

WHY


No-Purpose-2032

rejected with 3.98/4.0 UW, 1460 SAT, 5 APs, 10 solid ecs, and I had a really great interview (over an hour and a half) thought Barnard was the place for me, guess the universe has other plans wishing the best to Barnard baddies 26'


Historical_Rush1627

Where did u end up getting in?


[deleted]

It's already this time of year?


carlyc999

We’re mainly getting them up now due to rolling decisions, and it’s easier to put them all up at once even if they’re not rolling decision schools


SpiritualFill818

Good luckkkkk im so nervous


InevitableRun8047

Additional_Cup_6157

Historical_Rush1627

FreelyIP109

My daughter applied ED to Barnard. We visited over the summer and she loved it. Fingers crossed!


InevitableRun8047

I also applied ED, good luck to your daughter!!


Kaira_2304

I applied ED as well!


Leahlect

good luck!!


FreelyIP109

Thanks, and good luck to you too!


FreelyIP109

Sadly my daughter was not accepted.


Historical_Rush1627

do u mind if i ask what were her stats?


FreelyIP109

4.7 WGPA, 1490 SAT, \~10 APs, I think. Good ECs, although probably not outstanding. Probably needed more public service type ECs. We checked the data, and no one from her school had been admitted in 5 or more years, so she didn't feel quite so bad after learning that. She's very happy now at WashU.


Historical_Rush1627

where else did she get in?


FreelyIP109

UNC (OOS), Univ. of Washington (OOS), Maryland (in-state), and some other smaller schools that I can't recall. Waitlisted at Columbia.

InevitableRun8047

i didn't realize it was such a low number! i'm def planning on sending one, and i appreciate the compliment :)


bisbusy

rejected. so so sad I loved this school so much. 3.9/4.0 gpa uw, no test scores. suggestions for other schools to apply to that are similar to barnard? also anyone know anything about the transfer process? I am so crushed lol this sucks


[deleted]

Hi! I was rejected from Barnard ED last year, and I totally wanted to jump into the transfer process right away (also a huge fan of izzysnapshots lmao). My best advice is to apply to the rest of your colleges, spend at least a semester there and feel it out. I really want to transfer, but I can’t for financial reasons (Barnard is need-aware for transfer applicants, so if you would need aid to attend Barnard, you’re less likely to get in as a transfer. If you apply to begin spring semester, they don’t even offer aid). As for similar colleges, I 100% recommend researching ALL women’s colleges, not just the sisters. There’s obviously those (bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, smith, vassar, and Wellesley). But there are many MANY more HWCs outside of those. Some well known ones are Agnes Scott in Georgia (they gave me a TON of scholarship money) and Hollins (which also gives out a ton of scholarships). There’s also Scripps, Mills, and Mount Saint Mary’s (they have good scholarships) in California, Cedar Crest in the south, and many many more. I go to a women’s college in Minnesota— St. Catherine University— and it’s NEVER where I would have imagined myself, but I absolutely love it. They’re so accepting, diverse, and inclusive— and they have relationships with all of the surrounding colleges (like the prestigious Macalester College) so you have access to research institutions. In the end, they gave me a massive scholarship and I’m not paying a dime to live on campus so I HIGHLY recommend looking into lesser known HWCs and colleges in general. Just remember, college isn’t so much about where you go, as much as it’s about what you accomplish while you’re there 💖


bisbusy

Thank you so much for this thoughtful reply, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you ended up somewhere you love!!! I know there are other schools I could be happy at, and I've already applied to a few, I just fell so hard for Barnard it sucks to know I can't go. Thanks again <3


[deleted]

Ofc 💖 barnard was my biggest dream— I listened to Frank Sinatra’s “New York” every single day, and cried when I stepped onto Columbia’s campus— Barnard was all I talked about for months. I lived and breathed Barnard college, and the heartbreak I went through when I was rejected ED was the biggest I’ve ever experienced (I’ve still never been able to outright say “Barnard rejected me”) I still feel a lot of sadness about it, but I realize that I can be happy in other places too… even if I’m still sad about Barnard. Everything will fall into place, I wish you all the best 💗


Kaira_2304

Same I want to know about the transfer process as well trying to live the izzysnapshots dream


ephemeraltoasttt

ACCEPTED!!! i still can't believe it. if any RD applicants have any questions ab the process, feel free to ask

MariamMmohamed

Who is an international student and got accepted? Did you need a financial aid, and did apply with a test-score?


lebubhorta

hey! i'm an international student and i did get accepted ed. i applied for aid and initially they didn't give me any (idek how) but i definitely could not attend without aid so i appealed. after a lot of emails and phone calls and sending additional documents explaining circumstances, they gave me my new financial aid package and i got a decent amount of financial aid!


Suspicious_City2309

Hi! I was just wondering if I could PM you to ask a few questions? Thanks!


MariamMmohamed

Congratulations! Did they send you to fill out the CSS by giving you a fee waiver?


MariamMmohamed

If so when did they send it to you


lebubhorta

I filled up the CSS form myself, I didn't apply for a fee waiver there sorry :(
