collegemom3717:

Is there any question that Barnard’s biggest draw is that it presents another way to gain admission to Columbia?

Yes, I would question that THAT is the “biggest draw”. I don’t from what figures you were able to derive such a fact?

I would think the “biggest draw” is its unique position of:

foremost: “technically” being a Women’s College with all its unique advantages, but

importantly: being socially fully integrated with a co-ed university, and

is located in New York City, and

crucially: sharing ON SITE resources, faculty and courses of a large University,

and yes, as the “icing on top”, it happens to be one of the colleges of an Ivy League University, just like Columbia College.
