[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The women's colleges are easier to get into compared to comparable co-ed colleges with the same reputation and quality of education. This is because the populations are fairly self-selecting. There are just simply not that many girls who want to be at a woman's college anymore. In fact, one girl I know who would have been competitive at a number of schools but really really wanted to go to Smith was a lesbian. That said, they offer great educations, and for a girl who is on the fence, schools that have partnerships with other co-ed schools might be preferable to women's colleges that are more isolated. Smith and Mount Holyoke are in a consortium with Amherst, U-MASS Amherst, and Hampshire where students can take classes at any of the 5 schools; Barnard and Columbia have a joint agreement; Scripps is part of the Claremont consortium.[/quote] +1 You left out Bryn Mawr which is in a consortium with Haverford and Swarthmore.[/quote]
