女生 doesn't always apply as "female students," it could mean "female" in general.

Editor: I don't think it means "female." Would my grandmother be a 女生?
Some examples from http://www1.chinesepod.com/tools/glossary/entry/search... ~
1) 他一见到女生就脸红。"As soon as he sees a girl, he blushes."
2) 哇!那个女生好有气质!"Wow! That woman has so much style."
3) 我喜欢高个子男生。 "I like tall guys."
