Parents and Guardians
Your daughter is making a big decision, one that lasts not just four years, but will be a life-long affiliation. Parents and guardians play a big role in this decision and are attuned to how a campus can foster growth through intellectual exploration, residential connections, practical experience, and life beyond college. We invite you to learn more about our programs, campus, and community and to examine the value of a Barnard Education.
How do I know my daughter is potentially a future Barnard woman?
Ask yourself, is she:
- Independent-minded; is she unafraid to question the status quo?
- Engaged and inspired; does she fuel discussions and demand notice?
- Spirited and tenacious; is she up for a challenge and unusually committed?
- Ambitious and curious; is she goal-oriented without being ruthless?
- Perceptive and aware; does she see connections and think beyond them?
Then, the answer is: she may be. The next step is to Learn More.
