Early Decision Students who have selected Barnard as their first-choice college may apply for Early Decision. Students admitted under the Early Decision plan must submit a non-refundable deposit and are obligated to attend Barnard College. They are not allowed to defer their enrollment. The Committee on Admissions may choose to postpone the decision on an Early Decision application until the spring. In that event, the candidate will be asked to submit a record of her school work from the first half of her senior year for further review.
