Ignatian and Presidential achievement scholarship

I’m trying to get a feel for what a competitive applicant looks like.
Would any past winners or past finalists be willing to tell us your GPA, ACT/SAT, and any other factors you believe helped your case?

Also, are Illinois residents given favor? I’m out of state, so it’s a concern of mine.
Thanks!

hi, im out of state and got a presidential scholarship of 21K per year which totals around 80k

nevermind i didn’t get the presidential achievement i got the presidential scholarship which is different

Is this a competitive scholarship? Do you have to be invited to apply?

If you’re still interested, I got invited to interview for the Ignatian scholarship with 33 ACT, 3.99 GPA, lots of service at a science museum. Let me know if you’ve been invited as well! We should chat!
