The Stamps Scholarship is University Of Miami’s most prestigious merit award available to students at the University of Miami.

This scholarship is awarded to exceptional and academically accomplished high school seniors.

The Stamps Scholarship is the most prestigious merit award available to students at the University of Miami.

Stamps Scholars receive a merit award equivalent to the full cost of attendance for four years of undergraduate study.

The award includes tuition and fees, on-campus housing, a meal plan, University health insurance, textbooks, a laptop allowance, and access to a $12,000 enrichment fund, which may be used toward study abroad, undergraduate research, unpaid internships, and other educational pursuits.*

Additional benefits of the Stamps Scholarship include being part of the Stamps Scholars on-campus and national communities, funding to support academic and scientific research projects, cultural and leadership programs, study abroad, conventions and other regional conferences, and invitations to online events and networking opportunities.

*Enrichment fund expenses are subject to prior approval by the Office of the Provost.

Eligibility Criteria

Early Decision I and Early Action applicants are automatically considered when they apply for early admission to UM by submitting all First-Year Admission Requirements by November 1.

Selection Process

Selected semi-finalist candidates for the Stamps Scholarship are asked to write a short response to a pre-determined essay prompt.

Finalists will be selected based on a review of candidates’ application and supporting documents, including their response to the pre-determined essay prompt, and notified of their status as finalists at the time of admission in late January.

Finalists will be interviewed by the Stamps Family Charitable Foundation thereafter and Stamps Scholarship announcements will be made in early March.

Stamps Scholarship recipients will be required to participate in the University of Miami’s scholarship program, which will be held in early April. 

During this program, candidates will meet with UM faculty and current scholars and learn more about our interest-driven education.
