[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Female Columbia College alum here.  Columbia College (coed) is far more selective and has students with far higher stats than Barnard College.  Those who graduate from Barnard, get a diploma that says Barnard College of Columbia University.  But most recruiters know the student profiles are different, and whenever I see a resume that says "Columbia University" on it, I know the student either went to Barnard (if female) or the Columbia School of General Studies, which is also much easier to get into than Columbia College and has students of "non-traditional profiles."

But for the record, yes CC has higher average stats….but there are many BC students with higher stats than CC students who happened to prefer BC. [/quote]

Columbia ACT (25%-50%-75%): 34-35-35
Barnard ACT (25%-50%-75%): 32-33-34

How can there MANY BC students with higher stats than CC?[/quote]
