<p>Historically, UR has taken <10 students off the waitlist. </p>

<p>Here’s Fact Sheet for 2012-13. 5370 accepted, 1237 enrolled. UR has taken their older Fact Sheets down. (They’re probably archived somewhere on the Web, but I don’t feel like searching for them.)</p>

<p>Back when D2 enrolled and the 2 years previous to that, UR “over-accepted” and the resulting incoming class was too big. There wasn’t enough housing. Plenty of forced triples for Class of 2011, 2012. IIRC, the class of 2010 actually had kids sleeping in hall lounges for the first semester.</p>

<p>Hopefully, they’ve learned to predict their yield better and the new dorm has helped open more freshman rooms in the Quad dorms.</p>
