<p>With such a good number of colleges having such massive over-enrollment, has any one else wondered which schools are being under-enrolled? Does anyone have any information on this?</p>
<p>Here is a link to some schools that are under-enrolled:</p>

<p>Weenie, are you referring to “nacac”? This is an Association for College Admission Counseling. They have a website.</p>
<p>northeastmom:
Yeah, sorry!! I edited my post after I found it…</p>
<p>I also noticed their report which does talk about popluation/admission trends and is sort of interesting:</p>

<p>Thanks weenie. It is interesting. I did not expect the ave. yield rate to be 45%, since so many students apply to so many schools. That sounds very high to me.</p>
<p>My S survived freshman year at Univ of San Diego in a triple. Not the end of the world. Now my D is going to have a triple at UCLA. She’ll survive too. Btw weenie, my niece graduated from Denison in 4 yrs; I attended her grad. What a great school!</p>
<p>greek flush refers to the period after rush at many schools when students move into greek sponsored housing</p>
<p>University of Richmond has some triples. I don’t think any of the girls’ dorms are though. </p>
<p>The triple rooms (in South Court, for anyone who knows the campus), are pretty nice though. Really spacey - much more spacey than the double dorms even accounting for the third person. It’s not like a double room where they just crammed another person in, there is lots of space. Actually if I were to go to UR I would prefer those rooms to the doubles.</p>
<p>Its stuff like this that makes me feel really lucky that I’m in a double with the fridge provided, my own dresser and a full closet to myself. When my sis was a freshman at Wake Forest 4 years ago, she got half a dresser and half a closet, and that was in a double with one roomie! Over on the College Life page, kids are horrified because they’ve just found out they’re sharing one room with 4 and 5 others. That’s insane!</p>
<p>NYU has lower-cost triples that students can choose to live in; they are pretty cramped. My daughter is in a triple room, but it has two bedrooms (2 girls in one room, her in the other).</p>
<p>My local university, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, has so little student housing that they cram students in wherever they can–even in storerooms that have been converted to dorm rooms.</p>
<p>It makes me wonder if fire marshalls ever inspect some of these dorms.</p>
