Because it is hard exactly estimating how many students will accept an offer.

Michigan is over enrolled this year too. They don't have housing for many of the kids taken from the waitlist. They're all in limbo.

Somehow the numbers worked out by the end of the semester, I’m not sure if it was because of drop outs or people moving off campus.
How do they became available? Kids drop out or change dorms?
