Re: I'm an MIT Admissions Officer. Ask me Questions!

@ demosthenes2k8 - We have about 4000 undergrads, and 6000 grad students, which is a bit over 10000 students total.

MIT housing is a bit over-crowded, but we have a new dorm on track to open in fall 2011, which will help alleviate that problem. Otherwise, I think it's a friendly place with enough people that you'll always be able to meet new people, but not so many people that you feel like you're lost in a sea of people. At least MIT is the right size school for me - other people have mentioned the "fit" of a college, and size is one of the factors that plays into whether a university works for you or not.
