If you feel, consciously or unconsciously, that “real” social life must take place with boys, or if you need male company to feel validated, then women’s colleges are probably not for you. It is important to be honest here; I’m not saying this to be dismissive of your concerns. I went to a women’s college and my D goes to one now. It is a wonderful experience, but it is not for everyone.

If you apply to a women’s college and are accepted, you should definitely visit overnight to see how you react to the environment. They are not convents, but easy, daily interaction with boys is not on the menu at most.
