Michigan is constructing a 5 building residence hall. https://record.umich.edu/articles/new-residential-quad-adding-2300-beds-more-planned/

Regardless, Michigan will have significantly more dorm space in 2026-2027 than it has now.

Yep. Lots or on-campus and student-centric off-campus housing under development in Ann Arbor.

This fall has 1200+ new beds in new high off-campus buildings, Verve and Legacy.

Fall 2026 brings 2300 new beds in new Umich dorms, as mentioned above, and 600+ beds in new off-campus Hub William.

Fall 2027 brings 2500 new beds in three off-campus buildings, Rambler, Chapter, and Hub Packard.

Fall 2028 brings 1500ish new beds in two more off-campus buildings, Galleria and 625 Church.

So 8000+ new beds in four years should take some pressure off the student housing market.

The status of Phase 2 of Umich new dorms (adding another 2200 beds) is still up in the air. Umich has started fencing off the perimeter and presumably will be starting demo soon. Rumor has it something will be announced in August.

Rumor by who..
Glad to see Michigan finally building after decades of neglect

The same person who sent me a picture of the Phase 2 perimeter fence.

Ah and next you’ll tell me QANON conspiracies.

This has been every year at Pitt. Nothing new. And, them using hotels dates back many years. It was an issue when I went there ages ago.

Not sure if I would be so excited about that. War Eagle!

That is because they had delays with one of their latest dorm builds. Give Miami credit they have built a ton of nice dorms over the last 3 years.

I'm pretty sure that isn't true with most top SLACs still far more selective than virtually all SEC schools

I thought I read somewhere that 2007 exceeded the post WWII baby boom.

2002-2008.

9-11 through the recession was the baby boom.

It starts to dropp off after class of 2026 graduates.

Wacko jackos here...tanking stock market? lol...booming baby
