College Choice has published a comprehensive resource and a ranking aimed to aid women in discerning where to attend college: “College Resources for Women: The Ultimate Guide” and “Best Colleges and Universities for Women.”

College Resources for Women: The Ultimate Guide is an exhaustive collection of information on resources and factors that women need to know to thrive in college. According to Cate Mackenzie, Associate Editor of the Guide, “We included everything women students and their parents need to know about succeeding in higher education. Scholarships, advice on choosing schools, sexual assault awareness, trans women rights, studying in the STEM fields, single mothering while in college – we’ve got it all covered.” This resource can be found online at http://www.collegechoice.net/college-resources-for-women-students/
