Hi there, as I put together my college list, I'd like to consider gender balance on campus. Does anyone know which college has the highest female enrollment?
Certainly, for those interested in a college environment with a high female enrollment, all-women's colleges are an excellent option. Institutions such as Wellesley College, Smith College, and Mount Holyoke College are exclusively female institutes.
However, if you're looking at co-ed institutions, the University of Mary in North Dakota had the highest percentage of female students among co-ed schools in 2020, with more than 75% of the student body being female.
Remember, the gender ratio is only one aspect of a college's environment, and there can be variation within certain programs and majors. It's also worthwhile to investigate if the overall campus culture and programs align with your academic, social, and personal needs.
