<p>After learning of all the rejections today on CC as well as my very good friend's, I realized how insanely weird they are.</p>
<p>First, it does say that status changes won't be posted after 9 AM. Although we have been following the 11 PM Website Change / 3 AM Email theory consistently, these rejections still completely defy both of those things -- and it's even weirder that practically half of CC is getting rejected within hours of each other. All these very qualified people are getting rejected, and although you could leave it up to the zany way UCs are admitting people, this particular situation doesn't sit right with me.</p>
<p>Secondly, the "false admissions" thing raises a red flag for me. If they messed up people's admissions, what's to say they screwed up these rejections too? There are just way too many TODAY at these VERY weird hours compared to the waves that have been coming out before.</p>
<p>But seriously...I don't understand why they can't send out all the admissions at one time. If they're so "understaffed", then why don't they just send them all at one time instead of nitpicking around? Even if they had not made the decisions yet, they should just wait until they get around to finishing all of them. This rolling admissions crap really does NOT help anybody; that's why ALL THE OTHER UC's are consistent in their posting, and understands how frustrating March is for seniors. And yet, you do nothing to help....How pitiful. Maybe I shouldn't even go to UCI even if I do get in because of this bull crap.</p>
<p>Yeah, I really don't understand why UCI doesn't release all their decisions on one day as opposed to the rest of the UCs. This month-long wait just makes it worse, and leads to crazy conspiracy theories such as mine.</p>
<p>Very true. UCI's erratic admissions process is obnoxious. I'm just wondering if anyone received an acceptance. It's likely that their system is glitching or something.</p>
<p>I can seriously do a way better job than those people at UCI. I can fix their crappy servers if something is wrong, and I can resist NOT HURTING ALL THESE PEOPLE THAT APPLY BY MAKING THEM WAIT.</p>
<p>I dislike bashing the adcom, but yes, I'm really frustrated and anxious right now. Seriously, waiting for UCI's decision has made the university rather unattractive to me and I'm really turned off by their delayed notifications. Gah! I'm still waiting. x_x</p>
<p>F*** YOU IRVINE! Lol! I got into Davis and <strong><em>ing irvine took forever and then they go and *</em></strong>ing reject EVERYONE in the last wave!?!? **!?!?! Well now I decide... UC Davis, SDSU, Purdue, or Indiana U.</p>
<p>Like Northewestern had its admission decisions online yesterday (or was it 2 days ago?) but in the morning, some people checked their financial aid. On the financial aid page, there was a leaked link and people clicked it, leading them to a "Congratulations! You have been admitted to Northwestern!" or something. They got REALLY excited and posted it on CC, but then the adcoms said that it was something wrong with the server and deleted the link.</p>
<p>Well, to make a long story short, when the ACTUAL decisions came out (like definite ones), when those people checked the website again, they ALL got rejected (and there was 1 wait-list, I think).</p>
<p>So hold tight you guys. There might be a minuscule chance this is all a server error. CROSS YOUR FINGERS.</p>
