[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My junior is passionately interested in Barnard. Would like to ED next year. It's 150% her first choice. She wants to attend a woman's college. She's a top student at a top DC private so her chances are probably as decent as they can be (but still very much a lotto). Would it help her application at all to do a summer program there? They have a 7 week pre-baccalaureate program (for college credit with Barnard faculty) but it is $$. [/quote] No. Don't waste your money. The only thing it signals to the school is that you have discretionary funds to spend on this luxury good, but she's nothing to improve your chances. Under grad admissions is totally cut off from the summer programs. Those are just money makers for the university[/quote]
