<p>i heard that regents is really hard to get for the uc schools, like 800 people or something. does anybody know about like whatacademic scores etc is the “norm” so to say</p>
<p>I got the Berkeley Regent’s in addition to others.
But I’m not sure how competitive it is, but I think it’s pretty competitive because I know people who qualified for the Regent’s also applied to competitive schools throughout the nation and often were deciding between the Berkeley regent’s or an eastern school; however, most choose the latter.</p>
<p>In other words, its pretty competitive–I think you need at least a 2250 SAT to be safe, solid SAT II’s, EC’s, essay, good interview–just like for any other competitive college.</p>
<p>The selection process is automatic, except when you go for the interviews, so yeah.</p>
<p>I think Berkeley’s is the only one with interviews</p>
<p>UCR gives you a regent’s if you’re like anything above 2000…I think. I got a scholarship for about $26,000 over four years for Riverside. :P</p>
<p>Regents scholarship processes:
Berkeley: Semifinalists are contacted for interviews.
LA: Semifinalists contacted to submit letters of recommendation and an essay.
(the rest): notified with admission.</p>
