Stamps Scholars Program

Header 2

The University of Notre Dame is a proud partner of the Stamps Scholars Program, which awards multi-year tuition merit scholarships with additional enrichment funds for students to use toward their academic and professional development. Established in 2013, the Notre Dame Stamps Scholars Program attracts exceptional students who exemplify leadership, service, scholarship, innovation, and character. The Notre Dame Stamps Scholars are part of a larger Stamps network of more than 1,800 current and graduate scholars around the world.

Benefits

Notre Dame Stamps Scholars receive the most generous merit scholarship package at the University of Notre Dame, including:

An annual scholarship that covers tuition and fees as well as the estimated cost of books, personal expenses, and transportation for up to four years of study (or five years for a student in the School of Architecture or approved dual-degree programs) as a full-time undergraduate student at the University

A $12,000 enrichment fund for expenses including, but not limited to, Outward Bound, study abroad, unpaid internships and research, leadership training, conference fees, and travel

Selection

The Office of Admissions manages the selection of Notre Dame Stamps Scholars by identifying students from among the highest achieving applicants in the Restrictive Early Action and Regular Decision pools who demonstrate academic merit, strong leadership potential, and exceptional character.

All applicants to the University of Notre Dame -- both Restrictive Early Action (REA) and Regular Decision (RD) -- are considered for the Stamps Scholarship. No additional application is necessary. Applicants being considered for the Stamps Scholarship will be notified of any required next steps in early December for the REA cycle and early March for the RD cycle.

About the Stamps Scholars Program

In 2006, Penny and Roe Stamps created merit scholarship programs for undergraduates at their alma maters – The University of Michigan and Georgia Tech. Since then, the Stamps Scholars community has grown into a national network of visionary colleges and universities that partner with the Stamps Scholars Program to award multi-year scholarships that help driven and talented student leaders achieve their education and life goals.
