First Year Honors Program?

D was accepted, but she still has several other schools to hear from before deciding. I wonder when UCSC will make Regents and Scholars determinations. We visited campus last Spring break. So beautiful!

I made a UCSC Facebook page because I didn’t know if anyone would, so search UC Santa Cruz Class of 2020 to find it, even if you (or your students) may not go to UCSC!

I’m sure they’ll decide about the Scholars Program soon enough bc the Chancellor’s Reception in April 9th. I’m going to be there! I’m currently in the FYHP in the class of 2019, so if you have any questions I’m happy to answer them!

@clarinetkaren Is the Chancellor’s Reception local or in various locations? I know UCSB is holding receptions in different parts of CA.

The Chancellor’s Reception is at UCSC! @Undercovermom1

What really is the Chancellor’s Reception? @clarinetkaren

There were two parts last year: mingling and a presentation. First you get to mingle with current and former FYHP students and see what they’re up to. They also have some admissions officers and other officials at this time. Then there is a presentation where they talk about why UCSC is so great in terms of research and such and then provide more details of the program. Also, the chancellor is there.

So is that basically just for all the students accepted into the honors program?

yep! @HopefulCASenior

Ok, if you poke around the internet long enough you can find good stuff. Here’s some info that may be useful (at least helpful in that we can anticipate some of this): http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/yield.html

I just got a pair of emails inviting me to the Chancellors’ Reception and the Scholars’ program! They were just sent a little bit ago, so check your guys’ emails.

My stats
SAT : 2160
UC GPA : 4.25
EC’s: Executive Vice President of ASB, Editor in Chief of Yearbook, founder of Ultimate Frisbee club.

Congrats @swankyj!

Darn, I got an email about an ABC Reception (for African American students… which I am not…) so I guess that means I am not in the honors program…

@HopefulCASenior lol, same here.

I got the same as @SwankyJ .
My Stats
ACT:33
UC GPA: 4.2 -i think

@HopefulCASenior that’s odd!

@MelloG I’m hoping maybe this invitation was mixed up amongst the honors program invitations? this really confuses me

@HopefulCASenior I hope so :stuck_out_tongue: Otherwise you can get a free night at the Hilton :wink:

@MelloG I emailed the person noted in the email. I’ll let you know when I get a response!

I sent one as well @HopefulCASenior . We’ll see what they say!
