The Ivy League universities, including Harvard, Princeton, and Penn, have said they will delay announcing admissions decisions until April 6, about a week later than normal, to allow more time.

Other colleges and universities are finding success, citing that the housing requirement boosts academic outcomes and creates a better sense of community.
