Irvine Rescinds Acceptances for Hundreds of Applicants To: <dave () farber net> I don't know how UC Irvine works. But UCLA (at least when my wife was doing high school events for UCLA) accepts 10,000 for only 5,000 slots. They know that most people who get into UCLA also have other choices. Thus they know from history that only about 5,000 will attend. I don't know if they have changed this more recently since they now have 100,000 applicants! -----Original Message----- From: Dave Farber [mailto:farber () gmail com] Sent: Sunday, July 30, 2017 11:11 AM To: ip <ip () listbox com> Subject: [IP] NYTimes: U.C.

Dozens have appealed. ------------------------------------------- Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/18849915-ae8fa580 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=18849915&id_secret=18849915-aa268125 Unsubscribe Now: https://www.listbox.com/unsubscribe/?member_id=18849915&id_secret=18849915-32545cb4&post_id=20170730164903:82640930-7568-11E7-AFFD-C9EBEBA5B612 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
