@transfer2UC16
Damn those are some pretty amazing stats. 
@VanessaNuno
I know I am 
lol
Did anyone catch this?

It appears that as of the 17th, they had already admitted 1215 students with the hope of enrolling 1250. I assume at this point any of us who get word will get it when some who were already admitted decline admission.
Difference between admitted and enrolled. The normal admit rate is between 7000-9000 students. But only around 1000-2000 actually enroll. People who get wait listed are the ones who benefit from people declining offers
I get that, but if they extend admissions offers to 1250 students, would they not have to wait for some of those to decline before they start extending offers to other students?
No. They will continue to offer them. Throughout al the schools they all have a number they need to admit in hopes they actually enroll, because other schools are offering admissions at the same time. So chances are low they actually will enroll so they need to offer others admission. Once they are unsure or more people start SIRing they will then start to wait list people. That’s why wait lists get offered later in the admission process
Because if they went how you are describing, no one would be getting admission offers until May
In 2015 they admitted 4905 for a yield of 1150, so about 23% of students offered admission actually enrolled. Considering they want to enroll 1250, I guess you’d have to figure that ultimately they’d admit around 5400. I guess it depends on how much variance there is in the yield rate from year to year. If it’s all over the place, they’d have to be pretty careful about how many admissions they release at a given time.
Which I think is why they do the rolling admissions. Makes sense. But unfortunately not all campus do the roll, like la, Berkeley, and Davis. So it kind of janks up the flow for other schools. Especially since two of those three are the most popular
Right, because UCLA and UCB have to have a way higher yield rate than UCSC. You could almost make a case for UCSC to release admissions to the students with weaker academic records first, seeing as how the stronger candidates might just end up getting snatched up by the better UCs anyway.
I guess I was right, but these percentages are still lower than I thought they would be for UCB and UCLA

@Countchocula25
Is @uchopeful414 lol
@BlackPlasma It’s like those Geico commercials. “Everyone knows that”. :-"
XD
You guys are tripping out of you think I’m a box of cereal.
Well count chocula and boo berry are great cereals you should be proud. I stock up every year on halloween. Plus now they have augmented reality cereal boxes! So cool!
Me too! I actually save one box every year because they change the cover. And I also have a a countchocula tattoo on the top half of my arm .-.
So as you can see, I’m a huge fan.
Ha nice, I thought I was the only one!
no tattoo, but I save the boxes!
