2009 Grace Hopper Conference Scholarships due 5/27

The Grace Hopper Celebration scholarships cover a combination of
conference registration (which includes most meals), lodging, and
fixed amount of travel reimbursement funds. The majority of
scholarships are awarded to undergraduate and graduate students,
however, junior faculty, members of non-governmental organizations,
and non-profits are eligible to apply.

In 2008, GHC student scholarships were made possible by generous
donations from the National Science Foundation, GHC Academic
Underwriters, Google, IBM, Amazon.com, Sun Microsystems,
Salesforce.com, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs & Co., CA, Cisco, Intuit,
Systers and the Anita Borg Institute Community.

The GHC scholarship application process is now open. The deadline for
application submissions is May 27, 2009 (Midnight CDT). You will be
asked to submit an essay, résumé/CV, GPA (grade point average) & class
rank and letter of reference (to be uploaded by your reference).
Please note that only undergraduate and graduate students are required
to submit a letter of reference.
