We are very happy that you have applied to Barnard College. When we receive your application materials at Barnard, each required credential is "tracked" separately. We record the date that it was tracked and enter the names of your recommenders into our system. We will track each testing subscore separately, but will use your self reported scores until the official results are processed, so we're not delayed in our reading process by a score report delay.
After we receive your actual application, a "tracking" email is sent, with a unique login for the links below, allowing you to "track" received materials via our online system. Use this system to note when materials have been tracked and to see if we are missing anything from your application. If pieces are tracked at different times, that's okay. We can't read all the applications at the same time, and we don't admit based upon when we read your application. We will contact you directly if we have any questions about your application materials.
It may take a couple of weeks for you to receive a tracking email if you submitted your application at or near the deadline.

You will not receive an automatic reply from us the minute you hit send on your application. We need a little time to process what we have received and ensure that information is correctly entered into our information system. (Around deadline times, a little time might be 2-3 weeks!) Please be sure to check your common application sent information to confirm that you have sent your application, supplement, and payment or fee waiver request to confirm that you have sent these materials. Thank you in advance for your patience!
If you have questions, feel free to be in touch with us; but please do not panic about missing materials. Leave ample time for documents to be received, opened or printed, and tracked before contacting us, your school, or those who may have sent recommendations.
One final note, if you have not updated your e-mail inbox settings to accept messages from apply@barnard.edu, it is likely your tracking number was filtered to your spam folder or blocked entirely. This has been the case, more specifically, for students with an e-mail address ending in @aol.com. If you have not received your tracking number and have already checked your spam box, you may call our office starting Monday, February 11 (the date by which we expect to have emailed all tracking numbers) and we can provide this number over the phone.
