Why a Women's College?
While few in number, women's colleges offer many rewards. According to the Women's College Coalition, students:
- Enjoy greater satisfaction with their college experience in almost all measures—academically, developmentally and personally
- Are more likely to graduate
- Are more successful in their careers—they tend to hold higher positions, are happier and earn more money
Our alumnae articulately explain the draw of an all-women's institution:
“Constantly surrounded by accomplished women who were my fellow students, alumnae, professors and college administrators, I could envision my future as one of them.”
—Dr. Amy Hutchinson ’86, pediatric ophthalmologist at Emory University
“A single-sex education was crucial in creating and developing my thought process, my confidence and my leadership skills.”
—Kay Lawther Krill ’77, CEO and president of Ann Taylor Stores Corp
