Application Requirements

Barnard College seeks women who demonstrate intellectual curiosity, an unquenchable yearning and a pure desire to learn. This may be demonstrated in a number of ways. As admissions officers, we love to find students who read as if they were denied the opportunity, who enjoy debate as if armed for battle, who engage in discussion as if the performance were being filmed. And our students love us, too. Eager about our urban setting, our diverse community, our flexible curriculum, they apply to Barnard because it's where they want to be.
