This may be true for your college, but it's not true everywhere. In my experience, participation in a university's summer offerings will not guarantee admissions, but at the schools I've worked at, it was always factored into the admissions score if the student had participated.
ETA: OP, I think the program at Barnard would be a great summer experience!
