<p>Just wondering. Berkeley's came out, and the UCLA website says it sends them out in the first week. Has anyone received one? I am not talking about the Alumni scholarship email.</p>
<p>I received it last week.</p>
<p>thnx. Ehh no longer motivated to apply to the Alumni thing now.</p>
<p>From past years they are sending out in waves.</p>
<p>If you get Regents Invite from UCLA what are your chances of getting in?</p>
<p>I’m almost positive you’re in for sure if you receive a Regents invite. I may be wrong, but it makes total sense!</p>
<p>I’m a California resident and got my invite from Berkeley, but haven’t received anything from UCLA. A few of my friends got the UCLA invite, but is there any hope of still receiving a UCLA invite, or is it too late now?</p>
<p>I would say your chances of getting in is very high. Of course, there’s a chance you might not get in, but again, you’d have to be the top 4% of the applicant pool to be offered the scholarship. It seems rather unlikely to have such great stats and academic excellence to not be offered admission.</p>
<p>Anyone ever got rejected after getting Regents Invite?</p>
<p>When I was offered a regents invite like 5 years ago, I was told by everyone that this pretty much meant I was already accepted into the school. I’m pretty sure nothing has changed.</p>
<p>Thanks and I just checked UCLA website and it says top 1.5% of entering freshmen are invited to apply. I think that explains admission into UCLA.</p>
<p>I would like to request AskMsSun to tell us whether getting Regents Invite from UCLA means
admission or not.</p>
<p>My daughter received a letter from UCLA for Regents but the letter specifically stated that Regents invitation is not a guarantee of admission. However on the Cal email for Regents, she was congratulated that she was admitted. So the schools are treating Regents candidates differently ( or so they say).</p>
<p>Regents for Berkeley is definite acceptance. If you’re top 1.5% for UCLA for regents, I highly doubt you’re going to get rejected. UCLA should be automatic admit as well. I don’t see why anyone would offer a regents candidacy to someone who couldn’t get in. The whole point of regents is to get someone who’s overqualified to come to their school.</p>
<p>Also is this top 1.5% score based or holistic? I think I’m close score wise, but not 1.5% close. Holistically I’d drop a lot… those essays OTL That dumpling essay OTL</p>
<p>I recieved an invite on the last day of January. They said the last day I could apply for the Regents scholarship was the eighth of February.</p>
<p>I want one. 
Guess I’ll have to wait til the end of March…</p>
<p>Just to clarify to any OOS applicants, the Alumni Scholarship and (I believe) the Regents are only available to California applicants.</p>
<p>^^ Oops, I apologize, Regents is for all applicants. Alumni is only for California students.</p>
<p>I think it depends on what you are applying for. For example, if you are applying as a music major, you could get the Regents invite for having excellent grades and test scores, but if you don’t pass the audition, then you won’t get in to the music major.</p>
<p>But I’d assume that in most cases, getting the invite means that you have a really good shot of getting in.</p>
<p>This is somewhat late, but is UCLA Regents anything like Berkeley Regents for OOS applicants? As in, do OOS applicants get an invite early too or are they not notified until the admissions date? Berkeley doesn’t notify OOS until decisions come out, so I’m clinging to a tiny tendril of hope.</p>
