[quote=Anonymous]Barnard has financial issues. Recently, rules have changed which restrict class registration for Barnard students taking Columbia college courses relating to ones major. This goes beyond core classes. Large and prominent lesbian population, so reputation is pretty accurate. Presence of men at columbia offers hetero women dating/hookup opportunities. Strong activist and judgemental vibe vs open inquiry. Many majors like asian studies and certain stem majors are very small and limited - and rely heavily on Columbia departments. Dance program well regarded. I know a lot of strong Barnard alums, but they all graduated before Columbia College went coed so they had no choice but Barnard. Columbia college first graduating class with women was in 1987, last in the ivy league to admit women. So today, women have a choice between Columbia College and Barnard. Barnard has a low acceptance rates bc it is a self selecting population and gets much fewer apps vs the college. It is a backdoor to columbia for straight women. [/quote]
