Barnard 2024 RD Thread

Hey y’all! I got a likely letter yesterday (February 24th) via email. Did anyone else get one? Good luck to you all!

@SassyClockFace Congratulations!!!

Thank you so much! I got the letter in the middle of a class lecture and burst into tears haha!! I was very shocked, but insanely happy.

My daughter also got a likely email on Monday! She is super happy. Good luck to everyone.

@SassyClockFace .which state?

As a break from tracking COVID-19 outbreak, I chased down Barnard RD notification dates for the last 4 years:

2016 THU 3/24
2017 THU 3/23
2018 FRI 3/23
2019 FRI 3/22

Best guesses for this year? FRI 3/20 OR MON 3/23?

@Itisatruth I made a countdown for 3/20, I think it should be around that day? I know they send an email out a few days beforehand saying when decisions will be released but I want to know now!

did anyone else get an email from Barnard’s admissions office about the changes theyre taking due to the coronavirus?

Yes, I did! Wondering if we can still predict decisions to release on the 20th?

@avaca02 I hope so!

decisions coming soon…super nervous! good luck everyone

ahh what do you mean coming soon?? was it confirmed anywhere?

There’s speculation that it comes out this Friday

Does Barnard consider major when admitting students?

March 20th is the big day!

D got an email saying the decision coming out 3/20/2020. They didn’t indicate the time.

Got Email! Decision coming out on 3/20

do you think it’s going to come out at 6pm est?

Maybe they’re not coming out today and instead next week as the email said? I’m not sure what the latest time it would be… I saw on Reddit that there was a Barnard community member who tested positive for COVID-19 and the cases have increased drastically for NY so maybe that delayed decisions. There still is plenty of time today but who knows.

[I thought it was Friday the 20th already please ignore this… quarantining has messed up my awareness of time]

Hi! I never received an email saying that the 20th would be the day we got responses. Could this possibly be a bad sign?
