<p>My daughter has similar interests, planning to major in CS, and interests in physics, math, maybe CE. She didn’t want a small college, and we also both felt that they might not provide the level and breadth of classes that she might need. She’s applied to a mix of medium and large schools. </p>
<p>It’s hard to interpret those admissions stats without knowing the stat breakdowns for male and female applicant pools. I don’t doubt that colleges pay some attention to their gender ratios, but it’s often true that the females in heavily male-dominated fields are self-selected and better than the average guy.</p>
<p>Since you mentioned Princeton, it’s worth noting that Princeton’s graduate programs are relatively small, and Princeton has at least a reputation for being somewhat more undergraduate-focused than other peer institutions.</p>
