Fewer females in certain majors

It would definitely have been the case at my college in the UK (3 out of 39 mathematicians in my year were female!). But many US colleges don’t admit separately for math, and unlike engineering or CS it’s just part of L&S which often is much more than 50% female. So it’s harder to give an admission boost in that situation, unless it is a STEM focused college that gives an overall boost to females.
