Liz’s Place in the Diana is a favorite among students looking for a caffeine boost, between-class snacks, people-watching, or time with friends.
Coming from nearly 50 states and more than 50 countries, Barnard students live and learn together on campus, creating a vibrant, ever-changing community where lively conversations lead to enduring friendships.
A walk across campus means familiar faces at Barnard, which retains its small college feel with fewer than 3,000 students. At the same time, students from Columbia and other neighboring academic institutions enlarge the experience.
The Quad includes four residence halls, home to all first-year Barnard students (and many upper-class students).
With high ceilings and lots of natural light, Barnard’s art studios provide space to create.
During the winter months, the snow falls beautifully upon our campus.
Barnard's many nooks and crannies are wonderful places to work and create new ideas.
Students take advantage of our lovely lawn space during warmer months.
To experience a bit of Barnard’s world for yourself, come for a visit. See how students interact and move through our campus and Columbia's campus across the street. Most importantly, listen to your gut. See what it says when you step through the gates.
Make sure to leave time to explore the unique Morningside Heights neighborhood. Often referred to as the "Academic Acropolis", Morningside Heights is anchored by Columbia University, with Teachers College, Manhattan School of Music, Union Theological Seminary, Bank Street College of Education, and The Jewish Theological Seminary all nearby. Historic Harlem, rich in culture and tradition, is only a few blocks north. Wander up and down Broadway, feel the laidback vibe of the neighborhood, and have lunch in one of our many neighborhood restaurants.
