It makes a very big difference to the University. Recruitment is purposefully scheduled after the date at which the student can withdraw and receive a refund on tuition.
Some mothers might get all hysterical when their little Polly Perfect doesn't get that Top Tier bid that they think they are entitled to. On the other hand, most of those mothers are not willling to forfeit several thousand dollars in non-refundable tuition.
And as one of the last SEC recruitments, transferring after a disappointing rush to get another bite at the apple means not only losing all that tuition, but also that Polly won't be able to rush until Spring semester.
I am not arguing FOR deferred rush. Just telling you some of the reasons it is what it is and why it is unlikely to change.
