Stamps Eminence Scholarship Program (Ohio State University)

The Stamps Eminence Scholarship Program covers Ohio State's full cost of attendance for up to eight full-time enrolled semesters and adds up to a $5,000 enrichment grant for research, conferences, or study abroad. U.S. citizens and permanent residents ranking in the top 10% of their class apply by indicating interest in the Honors or Scholars Program on their Ohio State application (Nov. 1 early action deadline), then complete a separate Eminence application with an essay and video; finalists interview virtually in January and February and attend a mandatory in-person Finalist Friday event. Renewal requires maintaining University Honors status every semester, community engagement, and completing an Honors thesis or capstone project.
