UC Berkeley Regents Scholarship for Transfers

Has anyone received it yet? Viewing last year’s thread, people started receiving it on this day.

One person has reported that she has received it today.

Are you in the Transfer page on Facebook? Because this girl said she won’t it. Have you heard of someone else?

@celiaruelas45 yeah. she posted her stats on the page. one other person said on her post that he got it

1 more person reported (may 19th) that she received it!

I got it on May 18th around 5pm, it came as an email saying a decision update was posted and to log into MAP.

@Andr01d Congrats! If you don’d mind, can you post your stats?

@icuzns Sure! I’m not entirely sure what kind of stats you’d like, so let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to add or elaborate on. I was really surprised when I got the email because I thought I lost any chance of getting it once I lost the 4.0, but I guess GPA isn’t all of it.

GPA: 3.97 (1 B last fall)
IGETC: finishing this spring
Major: mechanical engineering
Transfer pathway: yes

Misc: Not sure if this matters, but I’m 17 (will be 18 when entering this fall). I did talk about my decision to graduate early / why I applied to transfer instead of going in as a freshman in one of my essays.

@Andr01d thanks for sharing! what are ur ecs? also whats the first letter to your last name? im trying to figure out if maybe they send out decisions in alphabetical order.

@icuzns Sorry for the delay, I’m not on this site that much…

My last name starts with L.

ECs are mostly around robotics: 4 years, 3 as a mechanical leader, volunteering with elementary school level competitions (2yrs mentoring a team, 4yrs volunteering at events). Got some related awards that I talked about in essays. The other main one was an internship I’ve had for 2 years at NASA involving identifying molecules from spectrum data.
