<p>I mean if UCLA can release all their decisions in one day, why can't all other UC's do that. I rather wait on one specific date, then check each day expecting that I will either be rejected or admitted.. I'm dying over here man lol I'm also surprised with UCR taking such a long time to respond back because I have TAG, 3.4+ GPA and I'm a Business Admin major.. anybody else with similar stats still not accepted??</p>
<p>has nothing to do with servers…its sheer numbers. They receive 70,000 apps a year the most out of any school in the country. Freshman and transfer.</p>
<p>So your saying if UCLA can give result to approx 70K applicants at once there server is not better than one (say UCR) that sends it in batches to avoid server crashes…</p>
<p>Its because they need to look over the 70000 applications and they send out the acceptances/rejections when they finish a group. Its not as long as a wait if they waited till all apps were done</p>

<p>i dont think it hsd to do with the servers. just because they send the results out in batches doesnt mean people are gonna check in batches. people are gonna sign in and check regardless. if server traffic was really the problem then they would just release it all at once if they could. at least that way they can get it over with instead of having increased traffic over a period of a month.</p>
<p>on another note, even though everyone says a lot of these schools get 2039487342394 applications a year i really think they throw out a majority of these. i just think there are a lot of people that apply to UCLA just for the heck of it that have no chance of getting in like people that arent even close to the BARE minimum GPA for the university or partially completed apps</p>
<p>besides, they do that because there are so many applicants. Obviously it will take longer to go over them. </p>
<p>Who cares. Each campus has their own policy. I personally would rather have rolling then all in one day. Are you not going to apply to a school because of their decision date?</p>
<p>Well I think the problem that most people have is not knowing WHEN to expect a decision.</p>
<p>For example, UCI is on a rolling basis. That’s fine. But it would be nice if they could say “every Wednesday at around such and such time new decisions will be posted”.</p>
<p>Then we could all relax a little and check only on Wednesdays. </p>
<p>I check my UCI account all the time and stay up until 12 because I simply have NO idea which day they will pick to post a new batch. THIS, imho, is what is bothering people.</p>
<p>It’s not really rolling basis vs all in one day. It is set date vs vague timeline.</p>
