The Stamps Family Charitable Foundation Scholarship Rewards Exceptional Elizabethtown College Students

Elizabethtown (Pa.) College joins a number of elite institutions in being selected as a partner school for the Penny and Roe Stamps Family Charitable Foundation. Penny and Roe Stamps were inspired by the impact their own educational experiences had on their lives, so much so that they decided to support exceptional students in pursuit of higher education. Elizabethtown College joins a list of other Stamps schools, including Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Miami, University of Michigan, University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Business School.

About the Scholarship

The Stamps scholarships differ slightly from school to school. Those receiving scholarships from Elizabethtown College receive an award that covers 100% of the total cost of the tuition. This award is renewable up to eight semesters, and the amount will adjust to cover a change in tuition.

Stamps Scholars at Elizabethtown also have access to a $4,000 enrichment fund, which can be used to for research projects, study abroad experiences, service projects or another academic endeavor.

This prestigious scholarship also gives its recipients a personal mentor in their chosen career field. This mentor could be a faculty member or practitioner alumnus, and will help guide the scholar through personal and educational goals during his time at Elizabethtown College.
