About Columbia University Barnard College

Columbia University Barnard College is a an independently incorporated women’s liberal arts college, an official college of Columbia University and a member of the Seven Sisters, located in Manhattan, which is one of the 5 boroughs of New York City, the most populated city in USA, and the center of the New York metropolitan area, which is one of the most populated metropolitan areas in the world.

Barnard College was founded in 1889 and has been affiliated with Columbia since 1900. The college lies on a 4-acre campus that stretches along Broadway, between 116th and 120th Streets, in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, adjacent to Columbia’s campus and near several other academic institutions.

Barnard College has been named the most selective, by U.S. News & World Report, which also ranked it 30th best liberal college in USA. The degrees at Barnard are awarded by Columbia University, and all college faculty members are granted tenure by the college and Columbia. Even though, the college is affiliated with Columbia, there are legally and financially separated, having an independent faculty and board of trustees. Most classes at Columbia are open to Barnard students and vice versa.

The college’s athletic department fields 15 sports teams, known as The Bears, which compete in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I and Ivy League, through the Columbia/Barnard Athletic Consortium, due to the fact that this way they have the opportunity to compete on a larger scale than they would, if Barnard had its own teams.

Among the most resonant names, on the list of notable alumni, there are: Elsie Clews Parsons - first woman elected President of the American Anthropological Association, Helen Perlstein Pollard - archaeologist, ethnologist, Mesoamericanist scholar, professor of anthropology at MSU, Zuzanna Szadkowski - actress, plays Dorota on TV Show Gossip Girl, Christine Wang - architect, curator, artist, founder of Wang Museum of Technology, Jeane Kirkpatrick - first woman to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, and Alexa Junge - writer for The West Wing and Friends, among others.
