lovetocamp, usc is a private school that needs to attract students willing to pay $47K a year to attend when you can get the pretty much the same thing across town for about $23K. Second, the UC schools are flooded with top applicants and have to turn away well-qualified students. So they don't have to work too hard to convince people to apply. This isn't to say they shouldn't do a better job during the tours.
