LOCATION
New York: The city that never sleeps, the perfect place for your next study holiday.
Known as the Big Apple, New York City attracts millions of tourists and international students every year, eager to experience everything this iconic city has to offer.
There are endless possibilities and attractions to explore, and just walking around the city will make you feel like you’ve stepped off the plane straight into one of your favourite movies. The towering skyscrapers, world-renowned museums, Broadway shows, shops, Central Park, Fifth Avenue, Soho, Ground Zero, Tribeca, the High Line, and the Empire State Building—to name just a few!
Our school, Barnard College at Columbia University, is a private liberal arts college. Annie Nathan Meyer founded the college in 1889, in direct response to Columbia University’s refusal to admit women. Named after the tenth president of Columbia, Frederick Barnard, the college is located in Manhattan and is well-connected to the city centre by public transport.
