FIRST-YEAR
- CLASS OF 2013
(including Barnard Opportunity
Program applicants) Applicants who need supplemental funds to cover
College costs are encouraged to apply for financial aid from Barnard. The decision
of the Committee on Admissions to admit a student is not affected by the fact
that a student has applied for or demonstrated need for financial aid. All information
submitted by the student and her family in support of her application for financial
aid is treated with utmost confidentiality. Parents and students should be aware
that financial aid awards may vary among colleges due not only to differences
in cost (tuition, fees, room, board), but also due to differences in loan and
job expectations and evaluation guidelines and policies. Therefore, if a student
receives an award from Barnard that is substantially different from that of another
college, we encourage her to call and discuss the difference between the awards.
In cases where the information on the original application was inaccurate, incomplete,
or changed since it was provided, the financial aid committee will re-evaluate
the original aid award based on the revised information. Please refer to the section
titled Request for Reconsideration . Entering
first-year students are notified of financial aid decisions when they are notified
of admission. Barnard Opportunity Program (BOP) Scholars applicants should
complete the same financial aid application forms as regular decision applicants.

for more information about BOP. All 2008 paper documentation must be
sent to the College Board's Institutional Document Service (IDOC), PO Box 4017,
Mt. Vernon, IL 62864, rather than to financial aid directly. The IDOC site is
not available for the 2009-2010 academic year until February 2009. Refer
to the IDOC Frequently
Asked Questions section to assist you with the IDOC procedures.
