<p>why is the freshman class smaller? bad yield?</p>
<p>No -- just the opposite! The yield was higher than anticipated in 2004 and 2005 - so, after two unplanned for huge classes in a row - which strained the University's resources - admissions were more selective last year. The class sizes for the past few years have been:
2006 -- 5369
2005 -- 6076*
2004 -- 5961*
2003 -- 5511
2002 -- 5287
So now in housing, they've got the 5369 first-year class, plus a percentage of the 6076 sophomore class in the dorms. Next year, it will be a percentage of this year's 5369 class and a "normal" first-year class. This year, they were able to accommodate all transfer students who wanted housing -- so there should be even more room next year. The enrollment data is on the U-M Registrar's Office website.</p>
<p>so we can expect them to accept more kids this year? since they accepted less last year?</p>
<p>and what is hill campus?</p>
<p>hmmm, that logic actually sounds pretty decent</p>
<p>hill campus is like, the dorms that are up on the hill, it's like a 5-10 minute walk to central campus</p>
<p>Hill includes Markley - which is almost all freshmen, MoJo - which is closed, Stockwell - which is all female, and Couzens and Lloyd.</p>
<p>how's hill like?</p>
<p>I think it really differs from dorm to dorm. I personally think Markley feels like a jail (at least the bottom rooms)</p>
<p>Couzens and Lloyd seem to be pretty decent (I want to get into Lloyd)</p>
<p>and I think Stockwell is women's only, all I know is they have good breakfast food >_></p>
