Barnard College is an amazing college for women. It has the personal attention that we need along with dedicated faculty. We all get stressed a lot, though.

Barnard is wonderful for a number of reasons, including its small class size and resulting individual attention. The campus is cozy but allows instant access to Manhattan culture, and both the academic and non-academic opportunities are amazing. Don't worry about the fact that it is an all girls school, there are plenty of boys right across the street at Columbia!

Barnard may be away from the bustling NYC scene, it's nothing a subway ride won't fix. MoHi is a nice place to get a decent college education, although it tends to get a bit boring up here.

Barnard is a wonderful college with so many activities, classes and resources that you wish you could be here for more than four years.

Barnard college is one of the most unique college experiences that exist- partly because of it's location in NYC, partly because of the affiliation with Columbia, and partly because of its existence as a women's college. Being a part of Columbia is fantastic, but by also being part of a close knit liberal arts college, Barnard offers a much more supportive environment for it's students. Also, as a women's college, Barnard surrounds you with an amazing, driven group of extremely successful women- yet, because of the Columbia affiliation, you have the opportunity to have an entirely co-ed social life.

Simply put, I love Barnard and truly almost everyone I know does as well. I have never felt more independent, challenged, or excited as I do living in New York City and taking classes at Columbia. And because of Barnard, I also feel empowered as a woman.

Being part of an all Women's College in NYC provides me with various opportunities in the social aspect. With very enthusiastic women, you are able to get through your worst day with a smile on. The positive atmosphere you get from faculty and professors is your motivation.

the campus is really nice.

It's an interesting place, where you will meet incredibly bright and enthusiastic young women with huge ambitions.
