<p>"i'm assuming parking privelges and priority for signing up for classes?"</p>

<p>No and no. Regent's at Berkeley is not that great.</p>

<p>One thing to note is that neither of the people who have received Regents to Berkeley so far have filed their SIR.</p>

<p>By the way, congrats GetRidOfCC.</p>

<p>GetRidOfCC, can you tell me about yourself in terms of GPA, major, classes, and what not? I know UCLA requires a 4.0, but Berkeley apparently doesn't.</p>
