<p>Hi everyone, I'm new to College Confidential. I have recently been admitted into UCSD. </p>
<p>I was wondering if any of you have been admitted as a Regent Scholar? Do you know how they go about selecting Regent Scholars at UCSD (aside from top GPA's)? Is it possible to not gain admission as a Regent Scholar even if you have a high enough GPA?</p>
<p>Does bumping work on this site? Worth a try. :)</p>
<p>Oh and also wanted to say, even if you are not admitted as a Regent Scholar or whatever. Any info you have to share would be great! Thank you so much!</p>
<p>You bumped a thread 17 minutes after you made it at 3:30 in the morning…</p>
<p>…</p>
<p>Whoa grimes. Getting passive aggressive are we?</p>
<p>There is no regents for transfers</p>
<p>^Yes, UCSD doesn’t have regents for transfers. Most (all?) other UCs do.</p>
<p>UCSD does offer the Engelhorn Family Scholarship for transfers, but it seems more subjective than regents. Still, $2,000/year would be a nice help.</p>

<p>@Grimes
I’m new to this.</p>
<p>It’s strange you all say that because if you scroll to the bottom of this page:
[Regents</a> Scholarships](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/current-students/finances/financial-aid/types/scholarships/freshmen/regents-scholarships.html]Regents”>http://www.ucsd.edu/current-students/finances/financial-aid/types/scholarships/freshmen/regents-scholarships.html)</p>
<p>They have a Regents Scholar flyer for BOTH freshmen and transfers. So I’m assuming they would offer it for transfers too. No?</p>
<p>@goingmeta: Passive aggressive? Naa.</p>
<p>@smileycannee: Haha I wasn’t referring just to this board. If you know what a bump is, you’ve been on message boards before. I was just jabbing you for bumping something a few minutes after you made it when almost everyone is asleep, that’s all.</p>
<p>I also wanted to add another comment to my post. I am not familiar with this, I just saw it from a few other threads before signing up for this account. </p>
<p>But that’s aside from the point. If you could address my concern, that would be more helpful. 
Thank you.</p>
<p>^Wow, they sure do. Odd that it isn’t listed on the Transfer Scholarships page.</p>
<p>I haven’t heard of any transfers talk about getting a regents offer/call/letter so I’m not sure at all. I just find it really odd that it is listed under entering freshman scholarships.</p>
<p>I agree. It’s strange that it isn’t mentioned anywhere on their website (Regents for Transfers). Their selection process also seems very vague from what I can find about Regents compared to the other UC’s. Although I found some old threads on CC about transfers talking about getting Regents from UCSD so I guess it happens.</p>
