Dickinson-why much more females?

<p>This fact sounds funny. But I 've realized that the admission committee consists of only 2 gentlemen but 11 ladies.I also heard that the rate of ED I girls/boys this year was 7/1 ??? :confused: (please correct me if I am wrong,that rate is ridiculously high) . Any explanation for that phenomenon ,please? ;)</p>

<p>The ratio of males to females here is something like 45% male to 55% female or something - it’s not too extreme</p>

<p>Do you know the rate of applicants each year ? Certainly every college tries its best to get a gender balance.</p>
