I brought up the “Tufts syndrome” effect in this thread because of student #38 in the OP’s data link. SAT 2130, 3.77/4.57 uw/w, Accepted UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCI but waitlisted at Davis. It is disturbing because UC assures students that each campus evaluates applicants independently of other campuses.

<p>It is possible that the student applied to the most selective division or major at Davis, but the least selective division or major at the other UCs. Or maybe withdrew the Davis application after getting in one or more of the others that s/he liked more?</p>

<p>UC Davis’ common data set, section C7, says that “level of applicant’s interest” is “not considered”.</p>
