There are benefits to attending a women's college. They start with more personal touches in the admissions process. And it's true that their graduates have a better chance of earning more money than their coed counterparts. They also give women a network of supporters who will help them both personally and professionally throughout their lives. Other advantages include:

• An opportunity to participate more fully in classes
• Smaller class sizes -- resulting in more interaction with teachers
• Greater satisfaction with all aspects of their college experience than those attending coed schools
• A greater likelihood of graduating from college and earning a doctoral degree
• A greater chance of being a member of Congress or a business superstar

You should visit a women's college to see what these schools have to offer that would appeal to you. Many students don't seriously consider a women's college until they have visited one.
