Does anyone know why they send out GSP first?

<p>It seems odd…
I assumed that they chose the people who got in, and then picked GSP from the kids on the bubble, clearly, this is not so.<br>
Any explanations?</p>

<p>They want to give GSP kids the first chance to decide if they want to attend or not. That way they know how many more regular acceptances they need to offer.</p>

<p>i also think that they do not want the ones who dont receive an rd acceptance to go gaga over getting a gsp acceptance…</p>
