Hello! Does your full tuition from Chapman include room and board? or, is it exactly the amount for all 3 years? Also, have you received any stipends? (Extra money, other than the tuition) Thanks!

There was no mention of stipend money or money for room and board. I haven't heard of anyone receiving such either.

Congrats on ND! Great school!
