When securities are held by your broker or bank

  1. Prior to initiating your gift, please call Yvette Edlow in Barnard's Office of Planned Giving, at (212) 854-2001. Barnard College needs advance notice of transfers in order to ensure that the College is prepared to receive the transfer and to acknowledge your gift properly and in a timely manner.

  2. Notify your broker that you want to make a gift of stocks or bonds to Barnard and instruct your broker to transfer the securities, if DTC-eligible, to Barnard's account with JPMorgan Chase in New York. Your broker will need the following information:

    JPMorgan Chase
    DTC number: 0902
    Credit to: Barnard College, Account: P26050

    The tax identification number of Barnard College is 13-1628149.

    • Except for your signature on the power (and a bank or brokerage firm's signature guarantee), do not complete the stock or bond power form.
