Men's College





MOST NOTED MEN'S COLLEGES

As of 2005 , there are five institutions in the United States that are most commonly recognized as men's colleges. These include:


Some universities separate their undergraduate students into individual, gender-conscious colleges. Yeshiva University oversees the all-male Yeshiva College as well as the Stern College for Women. Likewise, the University Of Richmond has Richmond College for men and Westhampton College for women. In both of these cases, the individual colleges have their own residence systems, advisors, staff, student governments, and traditions separate from their male or female counterpart.

In a slightly different arrangement, Hobart College is all-male and is the "coordinate," or partner, college of William Smith College, a women's college. They are collectively known as Hobart And William Smith Colleges . Unlike the single-sex colleges at Yeshiva and Richmond, they are not considered to be two colleges within one larger university, but instead two independent colleges joined together in a partnership arrangement, much like the College Of Saint Benedict And Saint John's University in Minnesota.

Additionally, a number of Seminaries in the United States are open only to males for theological reasons, including The Master's Seminary in Sun Valley , California and the Saint Meinrad School Of Theology in St. Meinrad , Indiana .


COLLEGE BOARD LIST

As of April 2006 , the College Board lists 66 colleges in the United States as being officially men's colleges. These are mostly Rabbinical College s and seminaries, with a large concentration of Rabbinical colleges being located in the New York City Metropolitan Area .

According to the College Board's statistics, at least 15,183 men are attending the following institutions that are not open to female enrollment, with 13 schools not reporting their enrollment figures:


The largest of these schools include Morehouse (3,029 Undergraduates ), Beth Medrash Govoha (2,034), Saint John's University (1,842), Hampden-Sydney (1,060), and United Talmudical Seminary and Wabash College (869 each).

The smallest include the Yeshiva and Kolel Bais Medrash Elyon (17 undergraduates), the Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary (20), the Talmudical Institute of Upstate New York (21), Rabbinical College Beth Shraga (36), and Wickliffe College of Telshe (36).

The Williamson Free School of Mechanical Trades is notable on this list because it is a secular college that is not commonly included on lists of men's colleges, even though it is officially classified as one and enrolls no females.
