[quote=Anonymous]Barnard is a whole separate school from Columbia College with its own admissions, academic departments, dorms, and requirements. Many/most Barnard students highly value being at a women's college and choose to focus on that environment for their classes. So Barnard students take the vast majority of classes at Barnard, not Columbia College. There is no Core Curriculum requirement and they have a different set of courses in each academic department. There are some students who transfer from Barnard to the College every year. Students flow pretty freely across Broadway and social life is pretty closely integrated. Barnard admissions is pretty good at spotting applicants who are looking for a back door to the College. While it is legitimate for Barnard grads to work in "of Columbia University" on their resumes, it is considered deceptive to simply drop Barnard completely.[/quote]
