<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>So I got invited to compete for the Regents scholarship for UCLA and I was just wondering
what it means in regards to my chances of admission. Is it safe to assume I have a higher chance
especially because only selected applicants are selected to compete for this scholarship?</p>

<p>And I'm a transfer student from a CCC
Please let me know if you guys have any idea</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Well, you must have a fairly high GPA to qualify for it. What’s your major?</p>

<p>It’s usually a good sign, but it’s no guarantee of admission.</p>

<p>I’m a CS major and I have a 4.0</p>

<p>Usually it’s a good sign, but if you’re a CS major then don’t count too much on it.

last year, only 6 people got accepted for the CS major. </p>

<p>Like the other posters have said, you’re not automatically guaranteed admission. It could be a nice boost though? </p>

<p>Normally, Regents for UCLA is sent to the upper tier of transfers, and most applicants offered Regents get accepted just on statistics alone (high GPA). However, Regents have been rejected before.</p>
