UCLA Fall 2019 Transfer Thread

They only award 100 regents scholarships a year, including freshmen and transfers. If you didn’t get an invite it doesn’t mean you’re not qualified or you’re not good enough, it’s just extremely selective and they have to choose a small number in a pool of many amazing candidates. Be proud of your accomplishments and remember that a scholarship (or an invite to apply to a scholarship) doesn’t define your worth as a human :slight_smile:

@willowstil Ah thanks for making me feel better, I was so shocked when I didnt get one with my 3.4. I was like what!

anybody else having a hard time focusing on their current classes and life cuz of this wait :sweat_smile:

I did not get the Regents email, so that pretty much means I’m out :tongue: I am an OOS applicant and only applied because I got the application fee waived and had nothing to lose. Only way I could afford UCLA is with Regents. I am not hurt though since I know they only give 100 of the scholarships anyway lol. Good luck to everyone else!!

You still have a chance lol.

I just realized that UCB said in their tweet they will be closed for Easter until the 24th… maybe this is why UCLA wont release until then. They just couldnt get it together in time.

Wait, so is the reagents scholarship only for those who are accepted into UCLA?? have a 3.8 and it kinda worries me :confused:

@veejoeperra No, very few get offered a Regents and some don’t even get admitted. You still stand a great shot.

Is it too late for someone to chance me?

LOL,

I’m not sure if I should be more specific with the extracurricular stuff, but yeah lol

@ovalejand
i would say you have a good chance
youre right in the middle range for gpa and your ec are solid
but who knows im just a clueless student evaluating another student soo

Yeah, it’s mainly the GPA that’s concerning me a bit. I’m not sure just how much it might affect my application as a whole

I didn’t get Regents Scholarship email either. I am majoring in psych with 3.91 gpa and also an international student studying in ccc.

@ovalejand you def have a good shot at pre cog sci. Do you have a lot of computer science credits?

I took:
C++
C#/Visual Basic
Data Structures
Currently taking: Java
Currently taking: Comp. Organization and Assembly Language

Overall, I know that I’ve knocked out all of the CS needed for the major

@ovalejand man, the ling + CS pool has really upped its game this year ?I would say you’re in. However, I also just saw someone get rejected from Davis with a 3.91.

you’re doing ling + cs as well?

@ovalejand yes but my shot seems to dwindle by the day
