WHERE do top colleges find the space to store applications?

<p>Well, I don’t think they take hundreds out at a time. :)</p>

<p>From MIT’s Matt McGann, [here](<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/misc/miscellaneous/visualize_whirled_peas.shtml]here[/url]:”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/misc/miscellaneous/visualize_whirled_peas.shtml):</a>

You may wonder where we read these applications. For the most part, we do not read applications in our office. We want to be somewhere where we won’t be disturbed by visitors, where we can really focus on your application. Most of the people in our office read in their homes. For me, there are several places where you might find me (though I beg you to not seek me out in any of these places):</p>

<pre><code>* the dining room table (when my housemates are out)

• Cassava Boba Lounge (founded by two MIT alums!)
• Diesel Cafe (Starbucks’ rival in my neighborhood)
• MIT Rotch Architecture & Planning Library (good light, nice tables)
• my office (weekends only)
  </code></pre>

<p>You’ll find me at one of these five places pretty much every day for the rest of the month. There are a lot of your applications to be read! And speaking of your applications, back to reading I go…
