“it told me what to ask and what the renewal GPA looked like, which I was not going to find on my own”Melissa
Barnard offers a range of named academic awards recognizing excellence across disciplines, with particular strength in STEM research.
Selection beyond grades and scores
These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
Look for the school's stated criteria and whether an additional application is needed.
Confirm the current admission and scholarship deadlines directly with the school.
Check renewal, credit requirements and how other aid affects the award.
The fine print / Three questions to carry forward
Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.

That works out to roughly a 68% discount below the federal AY 2021-22 average cost of attendance of $89,538 (College Scorecard — a separate, federally reported figure, not the published cost of attendance shown above).
From the Barnard Common Data Set 2025-2026 (school-estimated figures):

Across all full-time degree-seeking undergraduates: 0 of 3,017. Athletic awards are excluded per the CDS definition.
The 2025-2026 column is marked "estimated" in the school's own CDS filing — school-projected figures, not final audited counts.
These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
Every claim is checked against Barnard’s own published materials. Below is the full reference set.
