<p>Regents scholarship at UCSD used to be 5K per year for 4 years. I believe UCSD may be going UCB's way -- UCB gives 1K to those who have no financial needs.</p>
<p>Berkeley's Regents isn't that great. You don't even get priority registration!</p>
<p>so let me get this straight....regents scholars have the option of chosing which college (within the university) they wish to attend, regardless of the college you were assigned on the admitted page?</p>
<p>can anyone confirm this?</p>
<p>no, you got your first choice college on the application</p>
<p>aren't there conditions such as participating in study abroad for the housing guarantee in chancellors'?</p>
<p>"the ucsd website also says something about choosing/changing whatever college you want before you enroll this fall</p>
<p>...which is really tempting 'cause i'm not sure if i want to go to revelle anymore."</p>
<p>That's not what it means. That means that you got your first choice college, which was apparently Revelle. You don't get to switch.</p>
<p>"what's the difference between regents and chancellor's?"</p>
<p>Chancellor's also takes into account financial need, while Regents' is strictly merit-based.</p>
<p>Is it true that the Regents scholarship guarantees coverage of a student's entire financial need? Does anyone have a link to where it says that on their website?</p>
<p>Regents scholars get their entire financial need met if they've done the FAFSA.</p>
<p>i can't find the link but im very sure regents covers a student's entire financial need. that's why the scholarship money varies from student to student because it's based on the FAFSA's calculation of how much financial need a student has.</p>
<p>How do you know if you got Regents?</p>
<p>i think you get notified when you know whether you get accepted or not.</p>
<p>Sorry, I am being retarded. It is only for incoming freshman.</p>
<p>Wow, Regents isn't as good as I thought it was for out of state students. It only overs a student's financial need up to the cost of in-state tuition. So, out of state students are still stuck paying an extra $15,000-$20,000.</p>
<p>UCs are not really a good option if you are OOS (out of state) and have financial need.....</p>
