Are you gonna update this with scholarships for this year? It seems scholarships by GHC themselves have already closed.

It seems that I don't have permission to create a new branch, so putting some proposed changes below. These are to a) fix formatting for the Anita B entry and to b) add a new entry for a scholarship sponsored by Walmart and Girls Who Code. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of information on eligibility for the Walmart scholarship; it was sent in the GWC Alumni Newsletter, so unclear as to whether it is open to graduate students or high school students as well.

| Anita B Aspiring Technologist Scholarship| -- | Friday, June 12th, 5:00pm PDT | Undergraduate
Graduate | Requirements for Aspiring Technologists: a) Self-identify as a woman, b) Be 18 years or older at the time of attendance, c) Be available for the entirety of the Bootcamp and GHC, d) We will ask all participants to arrive on Monday, September 30 depart on Saturday, October 5, 2019. The Bootcamp is scheduled to start at 10am on Tuesday, October 1. e) Be a first-time attendee of GHC, f) Be seeking internships and/or entry-level position during GHC19 | Anita B is offering 14 Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) funded participation packages to aspiring technologists from the NCWIT Aspirations in Computing Community. Packages include travel, hotel room, and registration for GHC19. GHC is taking place in Orlando, Florida this year from Tuesday, October 1 to Friday, October 4. All program participants will be flown to Orlando before the formal start of GHC so they can participate in an Aspiring Technologists Bootcamp. The Bootcamp will familiarize participants with GHC and prepare them to find internships or entry-level positions with sponsoring companies. |

It looks like the page was moved & now it leads to a 404.

29th June PDT is mentioned as the deadline for Facebook Grace Hopper Scholarship but its 28th June. This is really misleading.

Hi!

Thanks for all you do.

The only thing wrong with the NetApp entry is that it says “undergrad”. All degree seeking students at a 4 year college or university can apply.

Thanks!

Hi @freialobo,
I curate and maintain a Diversity-Index of grants, scholarships and FA that encourages diversity in STEM fields aimed at half the world's population, Women at http://svaksha.github.io/diversity-index
I had listed the GHC event but after I saw your GHC scholarship repo, I wanted to ask if you would like to collaborate and submit a PR. It would be nice to collaborate so that people can find resources easily.
Thanks, Svaksha.

I could not create a pull request.

In Twitter's Scholarship description, it is mentioned that the students enrolled in two year graduate program

"Full-time student completing your undergraduate study in 2019 or 2020 at a two or four year university/college or graduate program."

I just wanna make sure if a graduate student is qualified for Twitter's GHC scholarship, though its pretty late.

Hello! Might you please help me post the below? I was unable to create a New Pull Request and our award is currently live (until 8/22), so would greatly appreciate the support. Many thanks!

Hi,
Is there any GHC-scholarship for Asians?
Most of them mentioned here are only those who from USA.

I applied to the Google travel grant and they sent out an email saying they have pushed back the notification date to August 8.

Minimum Requirements:

Could you add the Accenture Scholarship details to the list for GHC? Newly launched this week - http://accenture.com/ghc2017

Deadline is July 10th

Scholarship includes:

• Three-day conference pass
• Round-trip airfare

I'm putting together a PR for this, but wanted to provide easy tracking for it.

Are there no scholarships by Facebook or Msft this year?

It will be good to have eligibility declared in the list as most are for US based citizens and will help those overseas in shortlisting
