Who
We are a community of exceptional student and alumni leaders
- “The Stamps Scholarship allows me to pursue what I want to pursue without any reservations. The scholarship and the network it provides allow me to go full-force into what I want to study.”
- “I’m a better person for having gone abroad and believe in my own strength so much more. The Stamps Scholarship empowered me to take risks and has given me a community of people to do it with me.”
- “Being able to give back to your community is something I have always had a passion for.”
- “Whether it’s a quick news item or a film review, everything I am allowed to write is a gift and I couldn’t be luckier to do what I do.”
- “The main thing the Stamps Scholarship has done is give me the freedom to explore opportunities even when they don’t seem possible. The Stamps Scholarship allowed me to pick my own pace and always embrace any opportunity that arose.”
- “Through the Stamps Conventions and playing music with other Stamps Scholars, I learned how to network. I learned how to be a professional person, as well as a professional musician. The Stamps Scholarship gave me a much expanded worldview that I probably wouldn’t have gotten otherwise.”

Prospective Scholars
If you are interested in being considered for a Stamps Scholarship, please contact one (or more) of our partner schools directly. Scholarships are awarded by the partner schools, not by the Foundation.
