Barnard College Pre-College Summer Programs
Outside funding is available!
See Ms. MacNeil
All students in residence are guided by a carefully selected group of Barnard and Columbia Resident Assistants and are supervised by the Associate Director of Residential Life, a full-time administrator.
If you live on campus, your Resident Assistant (RA) will become a very important resource and friend during your stay. Hall meetings are arranged as well as hall activities. In addition, living with a roommate within a real college dormitory setting is an important part of your pre-college experience.
You also play a role in assuring your own safety by complying with the program's 11:30 p.m. curfew Sunday through Thursday, and the midnight curfew on Friday and Saturday. Students who go off campus when they are not in class must sign out in a logbook and sign in when they return. Curfew and sign-in/sign-out procedures are taken very seriously by the program's director and college officials; violating these policies will result in disciplinary action and/or dismissal.
In compliance with Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act and other federal, state and local laws, and in accordance with our values, Barnard College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, national or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, age or disability in the administration of any of its educational programs, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and other school-administered programs or in its employment practices. In addition, Barnard College does not discriminate on the basis of alienage or citizenship status, gender (including gender identity), marital partnership status, military status, predisposing genetic characteristics or domestic violence victim status in its employment practices. Finally, in accordance with Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Barnard College does not discriminate on the basis of sex in its educational programs, activities or employment practices.

Transcript Information
In most of our programs, in lieu of an official "transcript," classroom instructors provide an evaluation on official letterhead for each student. This policy places a greater emphasis on the journey of learning, rather than a grade. If you would like to submit your instructor evaluation(s) as part of a regular college application, you may send the evaluation directly to your college(s) of choice. Since our office does not provide "official" transcripts, your evaluation does not need to be sent directly from our office. Please note that these evaluations are not letters of recommendation, but are rather informational regarding the content of the class(es) and evaluative regarding a student's performance. Students in S-Cubed Summer and Entrepreneurs-in-Training will receive certificates of completion rather than an evaluation due to the multi-faceted aspects of those programs.Residential Life
Program residents live on the Barnard campus in Sulzberger Hall, a modern air-conditioned facility equipped with high-speed internet connections. Students live in double and triple rooms, and roommates are assigned based on students' responses to a housing questionnaire. Monday to Friday breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunches and dinner are included in the cost of the program.All students in residence are guided by a carefully selected group of Barnard and Columbia Resident Assistants and are supervised by the Associate Director of Residential Life, a full-time administrator.
If you live on campus, your Resident Assistant (RA) will become a very important resource and friend during your stay. Hall meetings are arranged as well as hall activities. In addition, living with a roommate within a real college dormitory setting is an important part of your pre-college experience.
Commuting Students
Students who live in the greater New York City metropolitan area may choose to attend the four-week or one-week sessions as commuters. Commuters may occasionally arrange to stay overnight in the residence hall at a moderate cost on a space available basis. Commuters may enjoy meals in our dining facilities while on campus.On and Off Campus Activities
We offer a host of activities to engage students outside of classroom hours. With New York City at our doorstep and the facilities of Morningside Heights and Columbia University all around, students may choose fitness activities in the Columbia gym (for a nominal fee) or venture to Riverside Park with friends. They may also choose from a host of excursions offered for each night such as restaurant outings, walking tours or free summer concerts, or they may go to the movies or theatre, try salsa dancing at Lincoln Center, or they may choose one of our on-campus activities like movies in the dorm, s’mores on the lawn, or just hangin’ out with old or new friends.Social Policy & Guidelines
If you enroll in Barnard's summer programs, you must be capable of assuming responsibility for your behavior and willing to comply with all regulations designed to protect the health and safety of all participants. You are required to attend all classes, Life After College sessions, or Leadership Institute workshops; residential students must comply with sign-out procedures and observe curfews. In keeping with college policy and legal restrictions, smoking and the use of drugs and alcohol are strictly prohibited. Unacceptable student conduct will result in disciplinary action and/or dismissal. Details of the social policy are sent to each admitted applicant.Safety & Security
Your safety is one of our highest priorities. Morningside Heights, the neighborhood in which Barnard is located, is among the safest in Manhattan based on New York City Police Department statistics. When you arrive on campus, you will have an orientation to New York City "street smarts" with a member of the Barnard Safety and Security Staff so you learn to be alert and aware of yourself and others. 24-hour desk attendants monitor the residence halls, and only those with Barnard identification may enter. Security guards also staff booths on the perimeter of the Barnard campus.You also play a role in assuring your own safety by complying with the program's 11:30 p.m. curfew Sunday through Thursday, and the midnight curfew on Friday and Saturday. Students who go off campus when they are not in class must sign out in a logbook and sign in when they return. Curfew and sign-in/sign-out procedures are taken very seriously by the program's director and college officials; violating these policies will result in disciplinary action and/or dismissal.
Disability Services
Barnard serves students with a broad range of temporary and permanent disabilities, including visual, mobility, and hearing impairments, as well as students with hidden disabilities. The Barnard campus is also wheelchair accessible. The buildings on campus interconnect and have special features and access routes. Regular counseling sessions are not available for summer program students.Travel Information
Barnard College is easily accessible from all New York City metropolitan area airports, train and bus stations, as well as by car. Students commuting to campus daily take the #1 Broadway local train, or one of the several buses (M-104, M-4, or M-60) directly to Barnard. All admitted students receive detailed travel instructions.In compliance with Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act and other federal, state and local laws, and in accordance with our values, Barnard College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, national or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, age or disability in the administration of any of its educational programs, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and other school-administered programs or in its employment practices.
