<p>NACAC</a> Survey: Space and Financial Aid Still Available For Students On College Campuses</p>
<p>Universities of Arizona, Iowa, Idaho, New Mexico, and Memphis still have space. Some space still available for freshmen at Pitt and Cincinnati. Note that there are separate columns for new students and transfers. Be careful not to confuse them.</p>
<p>Lafayette is on the list??? Does anyone know what limited means?</p>
<p>Both Pitt and Cinn. say “limited” – dont know what that means. Residence? Major?</p>
<p>I’d say the biggest surprise on the list is Georgetown. Could be a mistake I suppose.</p>
<p>U Pitt, for example says limited openings for freshmen, for on campus housing, and a limited amount of financial aid. I know you can read columns kay, so are you asking exactly how many “limited” means?</p>
<p>New Hope, I thought exactly the same thing.</p>
<p>Georgetown University is the only school on that survey that has “No” spots for both freshmen and transfers. I don’t even really know what the purpose of this survey is for, but it appears that Georgetown does not need more students to fill its class.</p>
<p>Maybe the Yes for housing just means it has extra spots that aren’t being used. Who knows. Maybe graduate students can snag the housing spots not needed.</p>
<p>All schools have some limitation, so my question is more why do some schools say YES and some say LIMITED.</p>
<p>BB, Gtown says Limited – not the same as NO.</p>
<p>Maybe limited means on a "tentative’ basis, like if they have a full class now but are unsure that they will fill the class because of withdraws and what not? As opposed to yes, and the school knows they won’t meet their class load. Who knows, I am just speculating out of my behind. Maybe I should read through the website a little more.</p>
<p>Ummm…on my screen it says “No” under both Freshmen and Transfers.</p>
<p>Some not so bad schools on that list…Georgetown and Smith…of course they have no openings…</p>
<p>Georgetown University DC Limited Limited Private</p>
<p>It just changed when I refreshed, suspect mistake and corrected</p>
<p>Wow, it looks like Georgetown just did a quick update. I saw Limited earlier…now it says No.</p>
<p>Kayf try this link. Are you sure you are looking at the 09 survey???</p>

<p>Maybe Georgetown is keeping its options open because its tuition, room, board, and expenses top $60K for next year.</p>
<p>I don’t really know what any of this survey means or what info you can derive from it. Georgetown is one of the more well known schools on this list, but a lot of other elite schools just may not be a part of this group of colleges. I wouldn’t make any assumptions off of any of this survey.</p>
<p>If memory serves me correctly, U of Arizona, Arizona State and U of Idaho were all schools that offered nice packages to National Merit semi-finalists last year. If any parents of NMFs are facing sticker shock, it might be worth checking with those schools to see if those packages are still available.</p>
<p>BB, I think they updated,</p>
<p>MD, I suspect just a typo somewhere in the process.</p>
<p>I highly highly doubt Georgetown will have any trouble filling the class this year. Highly highly doubt it. They increased financial aid spending this year by 18%. More kids will be able to afford Georgetown then ever before.</p>
<p>couple of surprises: Lafayette College, UPitt?</p>
