1998

After graduating from Pelham High School in 1998, Downs attended the University of Virginia on a volleyball scholarship.

While at the University of Virginia, she was an Echols Scholar and a member of the Jefferson Literary and Debating Society.

After her freshman year of college at the University of Virginia, Downs chose to focus on her studies and aspiration to go to medical school and ultimately transferred to Samford University.

Her transfer resulted in her losing her scholarship, so she began competing in local pageants to earn scholarship money.

Along with the title of Miss America, Downs also won a $50,000 scholarship.

Downs was the third Miss Alabama titleholder to win the Miss America title.

Downs later stated that she received nearly $110,000 in scholarship money during the five years she competed in the Miss Alabama and Miss America organizations.

Downs is the only titleholder to reign for part of three calendar years.

The pageant, traditionally held in September, was delayed four months to allow the Miss America Organization to secure a TV deal.
