<p>I keep hearing about kids who have already heard that they’ve been awarded a scholarship to Berkeley but who’ve not rec’d acceptance yet. Doesn’t scholarship guarantee acceptance?</p>
<p>The regents scholarship, yes. There are a few others I believe? The leadership one and something else, so perhaps it was one of those that those kids received? Are you sure they actually received the scholarship?</p>
<p>Yes, but I don’t think it was regents or chancellors. But with the other scholarships… why award them if a student isn’t for sure admitted?</p>
<p>I’ve heard that it depends on the scholarship. Some awards are completely independent of the university, so they don’t guarantee acceptance.</p>
<p>Now that acceptances are out, can anyone answer this question? Did receiving a scholarship early on guarantee acceptance?</p>
