<p>Does anyone know if the Ignatian Scholarship covers just tuition or room/board also?</p>
<p>Thanks!:)</p>
<p>according to [Loyola</a> University Chicago- Loyola Scholarships 2009 - 2010](<a href=“http://www.luc.edu/finaid/scholarships_loyola.shtml]Loyola”>Undergraduate Scholarships: Financial Aid Office: Loyola University Chicago), they are full tuition scholarships.</p>
<p>I got my email. Did anyone else? If anyone did, can you post your email so we can see how it was like? I don’t know if mine was a standard ‘rejection’ email or if it was implying that I was the runner up.</p>
<p>Well, I got the scholarship, but I’m not sure if what I got is the “standard” congratulations email. I got a phone call first, and after we discussed some things he sent me the email, but in the body were just some points referencing what we talked about on the phone. The actual letter was an attachment. Would you still like me to post it?</p>
<p>yes, post it</p>

<p>Thanks for posting your email. Can someone else who didn’t get the scholarship post their email? I’m just wondering how a ‘rejection’ email looked because my email seemed to apply that I was the runner-up.</p>
