<p>does anyone else know what it is?</p>
<p>at the bottom of the email invitation, it says "P.S: if you can't come to scholar's day, please come to admit weekend." does this mean we have been accepted already?</p>
<p>in early february??</p>
<p>Yes. Just the same as everyone who got Regents Scholar packets from Berkeley are informally "admitted" too.</p>
<p>Scholars day is a chance for you to see the campus, hear some speakers, eat a nice lunch and basically be recruited to attend UCSD.</p>
<p>My brother went to UCSD scholars day a few years ago and they announced to the students who were there that they were admitted.</p>
<p>ah, thanks for the reply...</p>
<p>uh, so if you've got the regents scholar packets from berkeley, you can consider yourself admitted?</p>
<p>It seems like common sense. Why interview someone for the schools highest honor and scholarship, if their admission is in doubt.</p>
<p>true. thanks a lot then--that certainly made my day ;)</p>
<p>I'm sorry to 'barge' into your thread, but I was curious what statistics are required to become a UCSD Scholar?</p>
<p>I'm currently a junior and UCSD is one of my top choices. Thanks in advance. :)</p>
<p>oh, hi there :)
you're not barging in at all--welcome!</p>
<p>ummm...i can only speak for myself. my stats were:
sat 1: 800v, 800m
sat 2: 800 math 2C, 800 writing, 790 physics
gpa: 4.3</p>
<p>was this the information you were looking for?</p>
<p>Yes it is, and I might add that those are very, very impressive stats.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help and good luck with your college search! :)</p>
<p>no problem--feel free to private message me any time!!</p>
<p>those are killer scores, someone.</p>
<p>Where else did you apply?</p>
<p>stanford, princeton, harvard, yale, mit, pomona, ucb, ucla</p>
<p>Should have asked before, what is your intended major?</p>
<p>BTW, my brother is a Junior at Stanford for Physics and EE.</p>
<p>if we don't go, will it affect admission in any way?? cuz im in so cal, and sd is kinda far...for me at least haha</p>
<p>oh cool!</p>
<p>er...i don't think it'll affect admission--at the bottom of the email invite is something to the effect of, "if you can't come to scholar's day, at least come to admit weekend"</p>
<p>you could call to check, though</p>
<p>btw, joemama: congrats on the prez scholar nomination. did you apply?</p>
<p>someone: yes, submitted preschlr app but have little chance cause my ECs are just medium.
What is your intended major?</p>
<p>syawn: My brother went to it a few years ago. Said it was fun. I'm a little over 1 hour from SD, so I'll go if nothing important is going on at school.</p>
<p>sorry, joemama. symbolic systems @ stanford really interests me.</p>
<p>Ah, a theorist. Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, MIT seem like good choices. Hope you have the opportunity to choose between them all.</p>
<p>haha, thank you. what about you? possible major? college application plan? let me know</p>
<p>Frankly, I'm more confused about "Major" than I let on. I'm going to give engineering a shot--BioE (hence UCSD) or ME. I know it will be tough. My dad thinks I'm a born MANAGER so I will be "encouraged" to go for an MBA if I survive the UG Engineering propgram. I applied to a few Ivy League(but not Princeton), Duke, Stanford, Berkeley and UCSD. I had 1600 SAT, high 700s on SAT2s.</p>
<p>nice lunch? that's some incentive</p>
