A University of Georgia admissions spokeswoman said "we have a high-admission standard in comparison to other schools. We based this on the student's transfer application from other schools." West said, "It's easier to get into USC than any other school. This is based on the state's population. Georgia has approximately eight million, North Carolina four 5 million and South Carolina two \ million. We can take more students than they can." J "Clemson is probably more e selective than we are because they r work closely with the number of f dorm spaces. We don't guarantee the incoming freshman a dorm room. Also, over half of those q applying for admission don't apply a for housing," West said. f The availability of off-campus 1 housing for students who cannot get a room on campus affects admission requirements, he said.
