How would you respond to this statement about college admissions

<p>Hopkins surprises me. That was once an all male school. It also has engineering, sciences, computer/math sciences which are predominantly male fields. Several of the named schools are ones that I would have listed too. UDel also surprises me. I knew Catholic schools had this issue, LACs, and former all female schools, but the some of the other names are a surprise.</p>

<p>Many Catholic schools do have full athletic programs with a big deal put on basketball and football. Many of these schools are Davids in the world of Goliaths in terms of sports, but they insist on staying in D-1. In fact, that is a source of a number of athletic scholarships for those who are not big 10 athletes but want some scholarship money.</p>
