How prestigious/selective is being invited to the top applicant reception?

As much as UCSB is a great school, it was somewhere between a match or safety for me.

I got the letter for the top applicant reception and I’m very happy because it seems as if it almost guarantees admission.

I am curious about how selective it is. If this is very prestigious, that would make me optimistic about my chances at UCLA, USC, and Berkeley.

Can anyone provide some information?
