priority enrollment to be reduced

Disregard it as a “legitimate” organization if you’d like, but this year we had a Rhodes Scholar and an Academy Award Winner. Try to keep up Regents, will ya?

Talk about delusional. How’s the air up there? And I think its funny how you assume everyone who acknowledges the obvious (regents scholarship >>> alumni scholarship) is a regents scholar who failed to get an alumni scholarship, because it obviously takes a regents scholar to understand that a regents scholarship >>> alumni scholarship :rolleyes:</p>

All</a> California UCLA freshman applicants are eligible to apply for Freshman Alumni Scholarships. Applicants must be attending UCLA the fall quarter immediately after graduating from a California high school, and must not be applying after a one-year sabbatical in a study abroad program.

ANYone and EVERYone can apply for an alumni scholarship. The application is open to EVERYONE before they even know if they are accepted into UCLA, so even future UCLA rejects can apply for an alumni scholarship as well as a person in China with a 1.0 GPA and 200 SAT so long as they paid to apply to UCLA. You don’t need to be on a randomized list of those to be called or emailed to have the privilege to apply to a scholarship that anyone who paid a UCLA application fee is allowed to apply for.</p>

That’s not what she said. She said that during the 3 years her daughter has held the scholarship, that’s what has changed. Her daughter is a senior now. When she entered, those were the things she was promised.

OK, so its 4 years and not 3 years- bravo this alumni scholar has superb mathematical skills, skills only possessed by alumni scholars. These facts predate even that. Her daughter could not read the terms of her scholarship correctly because like I said, the parking policy was no different then either for alumni scholars. Maybe she just read the bold “Priority parking” and didn’t finish the sentence “for those who do not live on campus” because it was as plain and obvious as can be so long as one took a second to read it. </p>

: alumni mentors, alumni networking on a monthly basis, priority registration, priority housing, priority parking, etc. are opportunities that not all schools offer (plus the scholarship money obviously).

Just be very glad that reading comprehension was not a requirement for the scholarship because who knows how many others of you are out there. Alumni mentors and networking? Sorry to burst your bubble but this is available in just about every other college so long as you elect to not live under a rock.</p>
