The Milton Fisher Scholarship for Innovation and Creativity is open to students who will be attending college in Connecticut or New York City, and to students who are residents of Connecticut or New York City who will be attending college anywhere.
Students in their first year of undergraduate college, as well as high school juniors and seniors planning to attend college, are eligible to apply. This is a unique scholarship that is based on the student's ability in innovation and creative problem solving. A total of 3-6 scholarships are awarded each year and are renewable up to four years.
The scholarship is looking for students who can create solutions to problems within their school or community, develop a method to improve the environment and the health of those within it, or be able to solve a scientific or technical problem.
The Milton Fisher Scholarship is designed as a four-year scholarship to reward students who demonstrate exceptional innovation and creativity. The scholarship is named for Milton Fisher, a Connecticut lawyer and banker who was educated in New York. He taught a course on applied creativity for over 25 years and wrote the book Intuition: How to Use it in your Life, which has been translated into several languages.
The deadline for this scholarship is usually in APRIL of each year, and the award amount is usually $4,000 - $20,000.
