Maddox Stamps

I am excited to apply for the Presidential Scholarships at both the University of Alabama and Troy University as I continue my studies in communications, with a minor in sports management. Sports have always been a core passion of mine, and I believe that by merging this passion with a deep understanding of the communications field, I will be able to make a lasting impact in an area I care deeply about. While I feel that the University of Alabama offers the most specialized resources for my chosen path, I also recognize the incredible scholarship opportunities at Troy University, which would provide the financial support I need as I pursue my education. Through two years of dedicated study and faith, I have worked hard to meet the qualifications for these scholarships, and I owe a great deal of thanks to the professors and staff at Northwest-Shoals Community College for their guidance. My commitment to both my studies and the campus community has been demonstrated through my volunteer work. As a full-time student and campus ambassador for a year, I participated in a variety of events, including the Pancake Breakfast, Dragon Boat Race, Trunk or Treat, and managing the softball concession stand. Additionally, I had the opportunity to lead several campus tours for high school students. I am confident that receiving either of these scholarships will not only allow me to thrive academically, but will also foster my growth as a leader. With these opportunities, I will be positioned to make meaningful contributions to both my field and the communities with which I engage.
