ahoy, nervous people. The letters are probably in different versions because there are different admission officers in charge of sending them out (yes, code included) Sending out thousands of emails is simply too much for one person alone.

Nah. I don't think so. If UCLA can manage to send the same likely engineering letters out to everyone then I don't think UCB has a problem with doing that either.

I had logistical admission issues at the beginning of this year and I could only talk to my admission officer to clear things up. As for LA... I guess they could do mass-emailing instead of being officer-specific.

^^i hate to debunk that theory, but aren't admission counselors dedicated to a region, or regions. if not, then certainly there is one admission counselor that is dedicated to a specific school or city, unless it needs to be split due to the amount of applications coming from a designated area.
i know that my hs has the same admission counselor that in is charge of all students that apply from my school.
feel free to correct me if i am wrong.

and sending out thousands of emails from one person is not difficult. It takes one person (or a small group) to write it and definitely only one to press send to all the applicants. Computers can send mass emails.
