Barnard College - Columbia University Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

Barnard University is a test-optional institution, allowing applicants to decide whether to submit standardized test scores. It also permits self-reporting of these scores, meaning applicants can provide their own test results without official documentation initially. Approximately 35% of applicants choose to submit SAT scores, while 15% submit ACT scores; the combined percentage of 50% indicates that some students may be submitting both types of scores.
