<p>so i got the acceptance letter + package in the mail today. in the letter, it said that my admissions "is further distinguished with an annually renewable full-tuition Presidential International Scholarship." and then it mentioned nothing about it anywhere else in the package. i'm not sure if "full-tuition" literally means full tuition, or is it only partial? or +room and board and everything? and it doesn't mention as exact amount.. i'm slightly confused.. sent an email to gwadm already, but i was wondering if anyone else is in similar circumstances.</p>
<p>A tuition scholarship usually means it pays tuition - not room and board or anything else.</p>
<p>Hey gnoodle, I would like to ask where do you live if you received P. international scholarship? I am an international too and I havent received anything yet and I am starting to worry. The only thing I know is from application status check that I was admitted. No more emails or normal mail. Oh and did you receive it via courrier service?</p>
<p>gnoodle, would you mind sharing your stats? I understand that it would be the same for me because you are apparently international, but it would still help answer some of my questions.</p>
<p>Yes it should cover all of your tuition, total of ~$41,000. I am really curious about your stats and major. We would love to hear them if you dont mind sharing with us…</p>
<p>yes please! im international too so would like to hear more! thanks</p>
<p>i’ve never really posted my stats up, so just a small summary. </p>
<p>GPA: 4.1 (weighted i think, i don’t really get my school’s grading system)
SAT: CR700/M710/W800
SAT Math: 650, Lit: 620, Chinese: 790
4 APS (1 last year- got a 4, taking 3 this year)
ECs:
MUN (been to about 8 conferences in europe/asia), soccer, community service, drama, and other minor ones.
i speak 3 languages and have moved around a lot.
my essays were good i guess. but i did not expect myself to be qualified for a merit scholarship… let alone full ride. :S
i applied for the elliot school of international affairs.
i received my package quite late murko… i found out more than a week ago that i was admitted. so chances are you’ll be getting it soon!</p>
<p>Congratulations!! That is a terrific scholarship.</p>
