Merit based scholarship for non-residents at UVA and UCB

Paying for College

<p>Does anyone know if UVA and UCB give merit based scholarships to non-residents applicants? And how much if they do?</p>

<p>Yes, Cal Berkeley does give out Regent’s Scholarships, but the are extremely small – $1k. It’s more of an honor than cash. For instate, Regent’s scholars who have financial need will find a lot of their loans replaced by grants. Not sure if that is true for OOS, but I would guess highly unlikely.</p>

<p>UVa meets full financial need of OOS, but Cal does not.</p>

<p>UVA doesn’t give out merit awards – strictly financial need.<br>
The Jefferson Scholarship is available to all but is EXTREMELY competitive. It is based on merit only.

<p>OOS students going to UCB should expect to pay for all their costs except the small amounts that a Pell student would get.</p>
