My daughter had a similar choice and a few others. Barnard felt right for her. She feels very safe there and is absolutely loving it. We were not city folk per say but we live in a mid size area. Only thing she hated was the weather this year, but Boston will not be much better. NYC is really neat and diverse – lots of opportunity between Barnard and Columbia both socially and academically. My advice would be go visit… see which campus appeals to you and then take the plunge. All are excellent schools, can’t really go wrong here.
