Barnard is a reach also. It’s as competitive as Columbia. Any school that is need aware is going to be a reach for you. They will be considering your ability to pay their costs…and you can’t pay anything.

@ucbalumnus can you please comment on this?

Having stats that are above average will not guarantee admission to these competitive schools. International students need VERY high stats to even be in the running.

If a school like Barnard has limited funding for international students, that implies that the school has a limited pool of money for internationals. They will accept only the limited amount of students they can fund.

International student acceptance rates are VERY very low at these types of colleges.

@calmom do you have any info here?
