Good Luck to Our Seniors!

As the school year flies by, we can’t help but think of all the accomplishments of our soon-to-be graduates. We can’t wait for them to walk the stage, be handed their diploma, and take their next steps into the future. We are so proud!

Scholar Spotlight

This summer, scholars Adele Miller and Graciela Best participated in a Stamps outdoor adventure in Norway. The trip combined expedition-style hiking with leadership development and included scholars from six other institutions.

Adele said, “This trip was magical! The views, conversations, and treks were absolutely life changing and will stick with me forever! “

Distinguished Leader Series

This series provides scholars with the opportunity to learn from and interact with leaders of today.

Enrichment Funds

One of the major perks of the Stamps Scholarship at Illinois is that scholars can request additional enrichment funds.

Study Abroad

Throughout the years, our scholars have traveled the world to further their education. Where will they go next?
