[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a bit off topic but what happens if a college accepts more students than seats? I know there must be some type of formula that is used knowing that students apply to numerous school. Do the colleges accommodate the overflow?[/quote] Yes they do. Some schools resort to temp housing, make double rooms triples, hire adjunct faculty, etc. Some have offered deferred admission (January admission). This is why they like ED - if they've got 40% of the class set before they turn to the RD pool there is less chance of overfilling or under filling the class. This is also what the waitlist is for - if you think you might be oversubscribed you might do more WL offers and then backfill as needed.[/quote]So it seems that students who do regular decision have less of a chance of admission. Are there a certain number of slots held for regular decision?[/quote]
