| Sorry, I didn't mean for that last post to be ambiguous. Also, that post was meant to be read with as much sarcasm as possible. I wasn't serious.
When I said that they'd be trying to stick five freshmen in the single dorms, I really did mean single dorms, as in dorms built for a single person. There have been concerns about a housing crunch at Harvard, which is the reason why they stopped transfer admissions for a few years, so if their yield is higher than they expected it to be, then they'll have to find somewhere to put the extra freshmen. So putting five people in a room meant for one person is obviously exaggerating, but it gets the point across.
(BTW, I'm an incoming freshman as well, so this is all as new to me as to you.)
Edit: Oh, and when I filled out the housing application form, you could request between 0 and 5 roommates, which means that they must have accommodations for up to six people in a suite. |
