Am I making this up?--projecting a world--or did I learn somewhere that the university

use in useful ways--so they wanted to reserve the spot for someone who might
"need' it???

Seems to me such applications (for people already having a bachelor's degree) would be for some kind of hybrid status.  The expected destination would be the doctoral program, even though undergraduate courses would be required in preparation.

I've no real knowledge on the subject of course.
