<p>I interviewed in March and received notification of getting it today! YAY.</p>
<p>So, what are the real perks besides the obvious financial gift?
Keeping a 3.0 at Haas = impossible? Thanks!</p>
<p>real perks = networking opportunities and faculty sponsor for internships/letters of rec, ect.</p>
<p>and yeah i interviewed for it as well!</p>
<p>got regents here too!</p>
<p>Me too. (10 char)</p>
<p>Well, one of the perks that I can tell you has become very obviously lately concerns housing choices. All of my friends and floormates were applying for mini-suites this year (these being a step up from the standard double room with a floor bathroom). The only ones of us that have gotten them have been us Regents' scholars...it's really nice to know that I can chose what I want dorm-wise. </p>
<p>Also there is the Regents' and Chancellor's Scholars' Association that you are automatically a member of, which gives you the perks Break mentioned. I've had dinner with a former Boalt Law School Admissions Dean (which was awesome since I'm pre-Law), a Poli Sci Professor, a Bio professor who teaches one of the intro courses, and a Econ professor who had been a Regents' scholar at Berk before going to Princeton for her grad work. </p>
<p>I'm part of the social committee so I coordinate random trips and stuff for fun (not everything is about school!). If you do come to Berk, make sure you check out some of our activities Welcome Week. =)</p>
<p>Got it....</p>
<p>Where on the application status page do you look to find out if you have won it?</p>
<p>Non regents get mini-suites, too, geminihop.</p>
<p>DRab does have a point, others certainly got mini-suites without much hassle who were non-Regents' and I definitely do not have data on all the housing offers extended, but it was nice to have a little extra help in the lottery =) .</p>
<p>Does anyone actually know how the system works for lottery and Regents?</p>
