<p>Bri: why won't you interview?</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm probably gonna do the UCLA Reagents Scholarship. You might as well. The prompt is only 250 words and sounds prtty easy, and my recs are already in for the UCLA alumni scholarship, so it's no question. The more important question is how good my essay will be for UC Berk Alumni, which is due tomorrow night (by 11:59, thank God!).</p>
<p>I won't interview because I don't plan on going there and don't want to steal someone else's chances of getting a regents. Plus, Stanford > Berkeley. =)</p>
<p>Bri - I don't agree with you about Stanford > Berkeley, but I admire you for not stealing someone else's chance</p>
<p>well you won't really be stealing someone else's chance because they can always award it to another candidate. I don't plan on going to CAL either.</p>
<p>Quick question, do I have to apply separately for the Regents' & Chancellor's Scholarship like the Alumni Scholarship or will they automatically review my UC application and invite me if they deem me worthy enough?</p>
<p>I don't think there's any application process. They just send you a packet saying that you've been chosen to interview, so they must review just your UC app.</p>
<p>so i guess its safe to say if you live close to berkeley and havent got one yet you prolly didnt qualify?</p>
<p>quick question. I got one from UCR. I'm out of state. However, it had nothing on it for an interview. Does it mean that I just got it and don't have to do anything? I never applied for it though. Can somebody explain this to me? Is it a mistake?</p>
<p>when will so cal people get it??</p>
<p>and what were ur guys SAT/SAT2/UC GPA? or what other stuf do they base this scholarship off of?</p>
<p>my stats are..
sat1 is 1410
sat2 is 750/800/720
uc gpa (at end of 11th): 4.50</p>
<p>well i think it was more than stats.
My SAT I: 1360
SAT II: 750/740/720.
UC GPA: 4.3</p>
<p>The decision is based on
[x] academic performance,
[x] SAT I and SAT II,
[x] letters of reccomendation,
[x] extracurriculat activities,
[x] academic potential,
[x] economic background,
[x] evidence of overcoming challenging circumstances,
and other academic or personal qualities that would make a distinctive contribution to the campus.</p>
<p>SAT I: 1490
SAT II: 800/760/640 (<--math).
UC GPA: 4.4-ish</p>
<p>I honestly have no idea why I was selected. My stats are Cal standard, yeah, but I'm sure thousands of other applicants were stronger. Maybe it was geography (my aforementioned calc teacher told us b/c of our vicinity to Stockton that universities felt "sorry" for us. She cracks me up. No offense to anyone from Stockton). At least two other people from my school got the letter too. What about your schools? Oh well, not looking a gift horse in the mouth. </p>
<p>najmsh--probably yeah, sorry. You can check your MyApplication or whatever site to be sure; if you were selected then the page should tell you.</p>
<p>ecnerwalc3321- each UC has different requirements; for my UCSC Regents' scholarship I need to write an essay, but not interview (blegh). Check UCR's website for more info. And congrats!</p>
<p>Has anyone from southern Cali gotten a packet?</p>
<p>NOT ME~ I just came back from my mailBOX.........not a single fat envolop. well, i was kinda disappointed. but having known that u guys also haven't got one, i felt better. ^^ let's wait for tomorrow!!!</p>
