As contributor Jon Birger argues in [this article](https://money.com/college-gender-ratios-dating-hook-up-culture/), schools where women significantly outnumber men tend to have an unhealthy culture of casual hookups, while male-heavy schools are more likely to foster traditional relationships. Here are the top 25 colleges, based on Money's [Best Colleges rankings](https://money.com/best-colleges/), where at least 50% of the student body is male. Enrollment data is from fall 2013, the latest year available from the National Center for Education Statistics, and we screened out a couple schools where men represent more than two-thirds of the student body. | College (Money Rank) | % men | | --- | --- | | [Stanford University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (1) | 51 | | [Babson College](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (2) | 55 | | [Massachusetts Institute of Technology](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (3, tie) | 55 | | [Princeton University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (3, tie) | 51 | | [California Institute of Technology](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (5) | 63 | | [Harvey Mudd College](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (6, tie) | 54 | | [Harvard University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (6, tie) | 50 | | [Amherst College](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (9) | 50 | | [Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (9, tie) | 64 | | [Rice University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (14) | 51 | | [Bentley University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (15, tie) | 60 | | [Brigham Young University-Provo](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (15, tie) | 54 | | [University of Michigan-Ann Arbor](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (18) | 51 | | [Claremont McKenna College](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (19) | 52 | | [Texas A & M University-College Station](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (20) | 52 | | [Yale University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (21, tie) | 51 | | [Dartmouth College](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (21, tie) | 51 | | [Duke University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (21, tie) | 50 | | [Vanderbilt University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (24, tie) | 50 | | [Washington and Lee University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (24, tie) | 50 | | [Columbia University](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (28) | 53 | | [Georgia Institute of Technology](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (30) | 67 | | [University of California-San Diego](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (32) | 52 | | [University of Washington-Bothell Campus](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (36) | 50 | | [University of North Carolina School of the Arts](https://money.com/best-colleges/) (38) | 55 | ***Read next: [Why College Applicants Should Care Deeply About Gender Ratios](https://money.com/college-gender-ratios-dating-hook-up-culture/)*** ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/25-best-colleges-where-men-outnumber-women/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Education", "item": "https://money.com/education/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Colleges and Universities", "item": "https://money.com/colleges-and-universities/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "25 Best Colleges for Dating" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/25-best-colleges-where-men-outnumber-women/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/25-best-colleges-where-men-outnumber-women/", "name": "25 Best Colleges for Dating", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2015-10-15T14:00:01.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/25-best-colleges-where-men-outnumber-women/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/25-best-colleges-where-men-outnumber-women/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2024-04-02T04:14:53.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "25 Best Colleges for Dating", "articleSection": "Education", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2015/07/tk_col_standford_bike.png", "width": 4521, "height": 3042, "caption": "TK_COL_Standford_bike" } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Kaitlin Mulhere", "url": "https://money.com/author/kaitlin-mulhere/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/kaitlin-mulhere/#author", "description": "Kaitlin Mulhere is an editor at Money.com.
