While students were reveling over the increased prestige an admissions rate in the 6% range brings Columbia, it appears the pool of admitted students is still likely to yield a higher-than-ever number of entrants into the first-year class of 2015. As a result, Housing may have to undertake last-minute changes to ensure enough space exists for all students living on campus in 2011-12, and may have to move some students from their initial selections. This comes via a private conversation with members of the Housing staff at the conclusion of today's portion of Suite Selection in John Jay lounge, and they report that an email is likely to go out to students that have already picked into dorms that may be affected. If you receive this email, we'd be much obliged if you would forward it to spectrum@columbiaspectator.com so we can update this post in full. We'll also have a post later tonight on potential effects on people who dropped to General Selection under circumstances that may no longer exist. UPDATE: We've just been sent the email—you can read it after the jump.
