Is Barnard the same as Columbia?

[Anonymous]

Totally separate applications.
They didn't get into Columbia.
They got into Barnard.
It's a shame if they say they go to Columbia. Borderline fraud.

When would this ever be the case?

It happens.

Give me one example.

The Gate of Barnard says Barnard College Columbia University. The degree says Barnard College Columbia University. The kids are instructed to put Barnard College of Columbia University on their Resume, Linkedin etc.

It is like the NY colleges of Cornell--they are still Cornell. The all get Cornell degrees.

It is listed as a an official college of the University not of Columbia College or Fu Engineering etc.

You are sad, sad fuxkers saying Barnard is inferior to Columbia or people are not up to scratch getting in.

You realize it has an 8% acceptance rate and an SAT average of well over 1500

Look at the logo lol. Agree though kid should reserve the Columbia for employers. When I was at Morgan Stanley we interviewed kids at Barnard and thought it part of Columbia. For what's it worth.

When every second count, I don't tell a criminal to drop his gun by saying, "United States Postal Inspection Service, Office of Inspector General, Special Agent!" I just say, "Get your ass on the ground, Police!"

You may look at them the same.
I, as an employer, and same as many others out there, don't look at them the same. So be prepared for it.

SO to answer the original question they are not the same but Barnard is one of the colleges of Columbia and is part of the University like Teacher's College is, as an example. Basically, Barnard has their own admissions criteria, endowment, etc. but is considered by affiliation one of the schools of broader Columbia University.

I would say a kid should not say they go to Columbia but perfectly fine to say I go to Barnard, Columbia University. That is very truthful and ethical.

"I go to Barnard, Columbia University" sounds so cringy.

Just say I go to Barnard already.

Why does anyone care what someone (who isn’t your child) says? It has zero effect.

Yes. If a Wellesley graduate can just say Wellesley, why a Barnard graduate can't say Barnard.

Harvard extension students can say I go to Harvard I guess.
