7)
As there were a total of 696 applications and 195 out of them were successful, the rate of successful application was 28.02%.
This rate was lower than last year’s (36.33%) due to the increased number of applicants from 512 to 696.

8)
There are a total of 199 rooms in Graduate House, 190 singles and 9 doubles that can be offered to successful applicants.
Among the 9 double rooms, 4 were used as guest rooms at the time of this report whilst 5 were offered to the successful applicants. Graduate House was fully occupied at the date of this report.


9)
Committee members are informed that the number of successful current residents this year (106) was comparable to that of last year (107), thus the number of places that can be offered to new residents was comparable to last year’s. However, there was a 43.22% increase in the number of current and new postgraduate applicants but a 12.37% increase in the number of resident applicants as compared with last year’s. Thus, current and new postgraduate applicants faced greater competition for admission to Graduate House in 2007 than residents did for readmission.
