How did the Stamps Scholarship help shape your undergraduate experience?
The Stamps Scholarship has been an integral component of my undergraduate experience. My current internship and many of the programs that I am now a part of game through the connections I have made through the program. Additionally, not having to worry about my financial situation made me able to focus on what I truly enjoy.
