Women's College Coalition

In the 1960's, there were more than 200 women's colleges in the U.S.  Now there are fewer than 50.  Given that there are more than 80% fewer women's colleges today, there is often a misperception that women's colleges are more threatened than their co-ed counterparts.  However, this assumption discounts the fact that the face of higher education has changed dramatically for all institutions.  This report provides ten-year trends in enrollment, retention and revenue at women's colleges versus private coeducational colleges.
