<p>First of all, I want to point out I am a transfer student from a community college going to UC Davis next year. I received an e-mail during November informing me that I am eligible for the Regents Scholarship, a merit-based scholarship which grants a LOT of money to me... so I was pretty excited. The thing is I found the e-mail in my spam folder and forgot to unmark it as spam after I read it so it was deleted on its own. Now I have limited information on how to go about applying. I know transfer students NEED a letter of recommendation which is why I sent a LoR request over 2 weeks ago to my chemistry professor through the Davis website specifically for the regents scholarship for Davis. He hasn't responded to any of my e-mails since and I don't know how to go about this. Since the deadline is January 2, 2009 for the Regents scholarship, I am getting *very *nervous. I guess my question is, is there any chance the teacher responds directly to the request from the website? Or if I have not received anything from him directly to me, does that mean he hasn't done it yet? Who turns it in? And where is the actual application??</p>
<p>Thanks to all of you who took the time to read this</p>
<p>Thanks. Yea I've been to all those. The last link is what I used to send a request to my chemistry professor. It has been confirmed that he has received it, but what I'm confused about is what to do now. I have not heard a word from Davis or my teacher. The deadline is the 2nd and I already sent my transfer application in November and it has already been accepted</p>
<p>From reading the site it looks like your application for admission was also your application for any scholarships. It is certainly possible that your teacher would have sent the recommendation direct to Davis. Trouble is if you just sent the request 2 weeks ago it is also quite possible he has not done it yet - he may even be away or something, with it being a holiday. No way of telling unless you can get hold of him or someone at UC Davis.</p>
<p>According to the site the deadline is Jan 5th. Both my kid's schools are closed for 2 weeks over Christmas and reopen the 5th. If that is the case with your school(s) that may be the earliest you can get hold of anyone.</p>
<p>Yea it says the deadline is the 5th on that page, but on another page it says the 2nd. I really hope my admission application is applicable for it because I'm not sure if there was an option to check specifically for Regents in the scholarship section, and I hope that doesn't eliminate my chance.</p>
