 　　Washington post: Some 3,100 students accepted as freshman1 by the University of Florida for the fall got a big surprise along with their congratulations notices.

　　在家上大学
　　They were told that the acceptance was contingent2 on their agreement to spend their first year taking classes online as part of a new program designed to attract more freshmen3 to the flagship public university.
　　The 3,118 applicants4 accepted this way to the university did not apply to the online program, above and beyond the approximately 12,000 students offered traditional freshman slots. Nor were they told that there was a chance that they would be accepted with the online caveat5. They wound up as part of an admissions experiment.
