[quote=Anonymous]A lot of us went to college in the 90s when there were a fewer kids pursuing higher ed. Our generation gave birth to a generation much higher larger than our own. It was much more common to stay on campus b/c there was plenty of space. It's not the norm anymore. It took my awhile to get used to the idea of moving off campus after freshman year, but if I had eliminated schools that didn't have housing for 4 years, my kid would have had to toss out all their favorite schools. Freshman looking in the fall is also normal, it's not a weird thing about certain schools. That said, there is also, at some schools, the idea that you need to secure in the fall, but it's just not true. My kid is in one of the schools mentioned and they heard about a rush for housing. However, there is still plenty of housing stock and a lot of parents report getting better rates in April than those that (illegally) locked in in November. My kid is only looking at the high rises.[/quote]
