High stat applicants are usually notified earlier. The majority of applicants will be notified in February through March. This was several years ago, but my son heard in Mid-December about his acceptance with distinction so you never know.
Some campuses do early admits then rolling admissions through February and March. Some campuses will post their decisions within a small time frame over several days. Very frustrating for the applicants.
