The University of Missouri is one of just 36 universities across the United States and the United Kingdom that partners with the Stamps Scholars Program on a premier scholarship. Mizzou has collaborated with the program since 2016, offering Tigers a full four-year scholarship, covering up to the total estimated cost of attendance (including housing), plus an additional $16,000 enrichment fund for students to use throughout their time at Mizzou.
Mizzou has welcomed more than 40 Scholars since the partnership began - and will bring in another strong cohort this fall with seven students joining the Stamps community.
"We are incredibly proud of the relationship we have built with the Stamps Scholars Program," said Honors College Dean Catherine Rymph. "This scholarship allows our students to explore their passions and pursue their leadership and service interests, as well as build vital networks throughout their time on campus. We are thrilled to welcome a new cohort this fall and excited to see where their journeys take them."
Stamps Scholars at Mizzou must be enrolled in the Honors College for all four years, working toward the completion of the Honors Certificate. Scholars have a dedicated mentor, contact with campus leadership, alumni networking opportunities and funding for study abroad. Each student is connected with undergraduate research as well, working with their mentor to find a project that fits their interests.
