UCLA 2013 Regents?

<p>Not sure if this has been asked yet, but have any potential transfers received an invitation to compete for the UCLA regents scholarship yet? Was that supposed to happen/(did it?) mid-March? Or are they sending them with admission letters on April 19th? Thanks!</p>

<p>I believe they tell you after you get accepted, and usually the notification is by the end of may. I think they only offer regents’ for students that transfer with 4.0.</p>

<p>I thought that Regents was only for freshman, not transfers.</p>

<p>that’s not true; transfers get invited for regents too.
“Approximately 600 transfer students are invited to compete for the Regents scholarship each year and have, historically, maintained a cumulative 4.0 GPA at their prior colleges.”</p>

<p>In the UCLA forum, some freshman were invited in February.</p>

<p>I got the invite on the 6th.</p>

<p>Just got an email from Alejandra Ramirez regarding this scholarship for transfer students. The apps are with the committee, and they are reading and ranking them now. Answers are scheduled to be out around May 15th. <strong><em>Fingers Crossed!</em></strong></p>

<p>Could they take any longer? Regent’s Scholarship is slightly relevant in my school decision.</p>

<p>I guess they’ve chosen to more ‘around’ the 15th than actually ‘on’ the 15th.</p>

<p>Either that or none of us on here got it. FINGERS CROSSED for them just not releasing decisions yet.</p>

<p>@kingofspades: I assume they’d let us know either way since it’s (often) an instrumental part of choosing a school. “We regret to inform you…” no?</p>

<p>I was invited on the 6th as well and I just got the award by the mail today! c:</p>

<p>Mail as in…snail mail? Pretty sure they email as well…</p>

<p>Yes snail mail! I didn’t get any emails</p>

<p>Are you sure you’re not talking about the UCLA Scholarship Recognition Award? I got something in the mail about that today. But that’s not the Regents. And quite a few others have mentioned the email they send about Regents, so I’m pretty sure they do email.</p>

<p>@dmsgml7832: pics or it didn’t happen. but seriously, you’re probably mixing the regents scholarship with the UCLA Scholarship Recognition Award.</p>

<p>He didn’t get the regents. He got the scholarship recognition award…mine just came in the mail too lol.</p>

<p>Lol… Yeah, that’s what we all got so far. :-(</p>

<p>I guess ‘reading comprehension’ is not a requirement for recognition award…</p>

<p>^ Haha ouch.</p>

<p>They sent me someone else’s certificate by accident. The letter has my name and it shows up on my award summary but wrong certificate</p>
