FAQ
Does the scholarship include travel and hotel?
No, but we will collect information on folks who live more than 1-hour outside of Seattle, WA and will fund travel and lodging on a case-by-case basis if our funding supports it.
Are there additional resources and support for Scholarship Recipients?
Yes! We plan on hosting an exclusive mixer for Scholars where they will get to meet and network with mentors and leaders in the tech community. We are also in the process of planning more specific programs to assist folks who are looking for jobs, looking for mentors, seeking training, etc. Stay tuned!
