[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello :

Barnard is a separate college for women as undergraduates, with top educational standards. It is part of Columbia University.  Columbia College and SEAS(School of Engineering)are also undergraduate divisions within Columbia University. Eac institution within Columbia University has its own admissions. 
Barnard grants diplomas which say: Barnard College (in) Columbia University.

Women can apply to any three divisions as undergraduates:  Barnard College, Columbia College, and SEAS.

There is also another division called School of general Studies which accepts students age 21 years and older who are non-traditional students ( eg, people who have taken some years off from education, veterans, and others who wish to receive an undergraduate degree, and who are not directly from high school or from a gap year between high school and college).

Barnard is an excellent college for women and is a charter member of the Severn Sisters.  Athletes at Barnard can participate in the consortium with Columbia College and SEAS and play in Ivy league sports on Columbia teams.  All three schools have cross-listing courses and many dorms are shared. Women at Barnard can have the benefits of being at an all-women college if they want, or partake in coed education with Columbia. The two campuses are next to each other and share many things such as libraries, eating facilities, and dorms, although separately owned by each division within the university.

Barnard, like Columbia overall, is a mostexcellent place and very stimulating. Morningside Heights is a fantastic place, very cultured, cosmopolitan and with two of the most famous gothic cathedrals in  the United States almost next to campus 9 St. John the Divine and Riverside Cathedral.

This is absolutely not true. Barnard is NOT a part OF Columbia. Affiliated, yes. A part of Columbia lke the College and SEAS, no. Barnard has its own board, trustees, administration. Diplomas say Barnard, not Columbia.
