An interesting note is that Auburn really isn't looking to increase enrollment, as the university and city are basically at capacity. What this has done is make admission to Auburn much more competitive and selective.
Auburn is around 25K now, and was over 23K in 2005. Interestingly enough, 2005 was the year when Alabama's enrollment numbers really took off. 2005 was the first year that Alabama had a larger enrollment than Auburn since Harry Truman was president.

8 of 10 people that apply get into AU. If that's "competitive", you must not have been turning anyone away to begin with.

Definitely not trying to take a dig at Auburn or others because my grandfather and other family members went there, just basically at our high school in Texas Auburn would give a good amount of scholarship money to kids in the 40th to 70th percentile of the graduating class. Looking back at the kids who not only got in but got scholarship money it can't be too too selective.
