Women's College in the United States

Women’s colleges in the United States are institutions dedicated to providing higher education exclusively for women. They focus on empowering women academically, personally, and professionally, often fostering a close-knit community and leadership development. These colleges have a rich history of promoting gender equality in education and offer a wide range of undergraduate programs. Examples include Smith College and Wellesley College. While many women’s colleges now admit men in graduate programs or have become coeducational, their core mission remains centered on supporting women’s educational and social advancement.
