The Stamps Scholars Program is a special scholarship offered to a select group of incoming freshmen each year to form chamber ensembles. The Stamps Ensemble Scholarship covers the cost of tuition and fees and a standard housing and meal plan allowance based on the published cost of attendance for up to four academic years (eight consecutive semesters). The scholarship is funded from University merit aid, University need-based aid, federal need-based aid, State of Florida merit aid and/or need-based aid, and from the Stamps Family Foundation. Half of the award will be applied toward fall semester expenses, the other half will be applied toward spring semester expenses. The scholarship is not available in the summer term. The Frost School of Music Stamps Scholars program differs from the University of Miami Stamps Scholarship.
Students are expected to acquire an appropriate instrument and adequate instrument insurance prior to beginning their degree program. Questions about instrument selection should be directed to studio professors. Please note that financial aid does not cover these expenses.
