We are very excited to announce the first round of Google scholarships opening up in North America!

The Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship is open to current female students who are entering their senior year of undergraduate study or enrolled in a graduate program in the 2013-2014 academic year at a university in the United States or Canada.

The Google Lime Scholarship for students with disabilities is open to students who are entering their junior or senior year of undergraduate study or enrolled in a graduate program in the 2013-2014 academic year at a university in the United States or Canada.

Students should be enrolled in a computer science, computer engineering or a closely related technical program, and maintain a record of strong academic performance.  Scholarship recipients will be awarded a $10,000 USD or $5,000 CAD award and will be invited to attend the annual Google Scholars’ Retreat—a networking retreat at the Googleplex in Mountain View in the summer of 2013.

The deadline for both scholarships is Monday, February 18, 2013.  Apply today!
