Can Scholarships Ease Overcrowding?

I know that many institutions are filled to the brim with students. That is normally great news but it is tempered as most schools are getting paid less per student from governments and other funding sources.  This Inside Higher Ed Quick Takes, Impact of Scholarships on Community College Students caught my attention.  The study indicates that adding extra scholarship money to students pockets encourages them to attend full-time and even go to summer school. This is good news on the surface but I also think of the impact on full classrooms. If we get students in classrooms in the summer, it may create more space in Fall classes.

Just where my head went.
