Hi malaml,

Stamps scholarship is a new one and it offers full-ride to UM. Also, the slection criteria is very picky. Almost ACT score of 35 or SAT score over 2300 (or CR and Math is over 1550). I have a score of 1500 in CR and Math and I am a HS val in Orlando school. Taken 15 AP classes. AP National Scholar. Huge amount of ECs. Won the Siemens SF award for my cancer research paper. I did not get invited for the Stamps. So you could assume what level of competition is required. If my speculation is right, it all boils down to SAT or ACT scores for Stamps invite. This scholarship has no bearing on any major etc. Simply put, this is offered for the best of the best. Good luck and do not feel about Stamps. Also, getting Singer award is very slim too (15% award rate, they select 55 students out of 350 short-listed applicants).
