<p>Eh? Anyone know? I heard only like 4,000 but that seems so small!</p>
<p>4000 is closer to the number enrolled than the number accepted. It was 23,140 in 2008.</p>
<p>But this year they cut back enrollment by a bit, and got more applications than last year, so the percentage and number are likely lower.</p>
<p>UCSB cut enrollment but got less applications, so the acceptance rate should hover around the same.</p>
<p>^Where did you find that? Because the people I talked to who were rejected said that the rejection lettter claimed that SB had more than 50,000 applicants, and I compared that number to last year’s number, which was about 47,000. But perhaps I heard them wrong.</p>

<p>In 2008, it was 55,871 (47,025 freshman and 8,846 transfers).</p>
<p>In 2009, it was 54,758 (44,673 freshman and 10,085 transfers).</p>
<p>UCSB plans to cut enrollment by 275 less freshman, but also adding 100 transfers:</p>

<p>I expect acceptance rates for freshman to be about the same as last year to less applicants/enrollments cuts canceling each other out.</p>
<p>yeah, nevermind I just found it, too!</p>
