Founded in 1889, Barnard College was one of the first colleges to offer young women the chance to earn a college degree. Today, Barnard College is still committed to the education of over 2,360 undergraduate women from over 40 countries and 48 states. Barnard College partnered with Columbia University in 1900 under an agreement unique in the world of higher education. As an independent college for women, Barnard continues to maintain its own Board of Trustees, campus, curriculum, faculty, staff, and admissions process. Barnard also operates from its own endowment, while Columbia University confers degrees to Barnard students. The fully residential campus features countless, independent resources and facilities; students at Barnard also have academic and extra-curricular access to the Columbia campus across the street, including cross-registration for courses. The small, personal, and close-knit character of Barnard is augmented by the resources of a large research university. Barnard is located in Manhattan in the quiet neighborhood of Morningside Heights. The school stretches from 116th Street to 120th Street on Broadway, and the four-acre campus has everything its students need. A full gymnasium is located on the first floor of Barnard Hall, which faces the college's main entrance. Brooks, Reid, Hewitt, and Sulzberger Halls make up the residence life complex situated at the southern end of campus. Off campus housing options include opportunities for coeducational living. The heart of student life will be the exciting NEXUS Student Center, opening in fall 2009, where students will have access to many amenities to augment academic life.
