Selection Process

Here are important information to keep in mind:

To be considered for the Stamps Scholarship, you must apply directly to one or more of our partner schools.

At some institutions, the Stamps Scholarship is part of a larger scholars program, like the Foundation Fellows at the University of Georgia or the Carolina Scholars at the University of South Carolina.

Often, students who apply by certain deadlines (usually early or “scholarship” deadlines) using the regular freshman admission application will be automatically considered for the Stamps Scholarship. However, some partner schools may require a separate application specifically for the Stamps Scholarship.

To learn more about the application process and deadlines for each school, speak with an admissions counselor or visit the website of the institution(s) you’re interested in.
