SEATTLE, Feb. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, is pleased to announce that the firm's second annual Milliman Opportunity Scholarship application period is now open and accepting entrants. The Milliman Opportunity Scholarship assists students from ethnic groups and races that are under-represented in the fields of actuarial science, data science, computer science, economics, programming, mathematics, statistics, data analytics, or finance.
For the second year running, up to 12 scholarships of at least $5,000 will be awarded to students who meet the eligibility criteria, which includes applicants from these under-represented groups who are enrolled or plan to enroll in a full-time undergraduate program in one of the above areas of study. Students in the United States, Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Australia, and South Africa may apply, with the deadline to submit scholarship applications ending on April 13, 2018.
