Barnard 2020 Committee Application

Calling all prospective applicants to medical and dental schools: if you plan to apply during summer 2020 (seeking admission to professional schools in 2021), now is the time to begin Barnard's Committee Letter of Evaluation application process.

A Committee letter is an institutional letter of evaluation that is prepared for current students and alumnae of Barnard College in order to holistically present your achievements in academics, research, clinical activities, and service to professional school admissions committees. We ask that all prospective applicants who seek a Committee letter submit an application that will include information about your goals, motivations, and background.

Barnard's 2020 Committee application is now live! To access the application, please go to Prehealth Advising Resources in Handshake and click the document labeled "Committee Application Access - 2020." You'll also find more resources in Handshake, including an overview of our Committee process, important dates for the cycle, and a link to our Application Year Overview: Part I webinar, which describes the Committee process in full.

The deadlines to submit a Committee application are:

• First-time applicants: February 9, 2020, 11:59 PM Eastern
• Reapplicants*: March 5, 2020, 11:59 PM Eastern

*You are considered a reapplicant if you have previously had a Barnard Committee letter submitted to application services on your behalf. All other applicants are considered first-time applicants, even if they have completed some or all of a previous Committee application.
