Overenrolled Colleges

Anonymous
It seems like a ton of colleges overenrolled for the class of 2026. What is the situation at your kid's school?

I don't know if they're "overenrolled" per se, but they said it is the biggest freshman class ever, and they have some kids in overflow space in the dorms.

Can I ask to which school you're referring?

That's overenrolled. If they don't have enough dorm space without using overflow or "forced Triples" they have overenrolled

Does VA Tech still have this issue? I read a few years ago (pre-covid) too many incoming freshman said yes and the school rented rooms in hotels. DC is a rising senior, wonder if it worth applying if the school continues to over enroll

Purdue had the same problem a few years ago too.

Yes. Like PP, biggest freshman class ever and triple/quads to accommodate.

PSU does not have a vaccine mandate. Just a thought.

Is “PSU” Penn State? I just saw someone refer to Penn State as a public Ivy so maybe that’s why. When I was in high school, it was a different school!

Loyola Marymount in LA has some freshmen this fall bunking in triples. Not my guy, happily. At least, though, they made only a few of the newest, nicest dorms into triples.

“Seems like a ton of colleges…”

Like which ones exactly? Name at least five schools.
