Subject: Reminder- Quip Diversity Scholarship
Hi.
The Quip Diversity Scholarship is happening now!
Recipients will each receive $5000 toward their education ($1000 for each runner-up), and they will be invited to visit our office in San Francisco for a full day of learning, mentorship, and meeting the team (all expenses paid).
By running this scholarship, we’re hoping to have an impact beyond our team and do a small part to encourage students getting started in computer science.
We’re looking for applicants who
- Are part of a group that has been historically underrepresented in STEM (including but not limited to: Women, African American, LatinX, American Indian, first-generation college students, LGBTQ+, and/or people with disabilities)
- Have demonstrated interest or declaration of studying computer science or a related field.
- Are currently enrolled as an undergraduate and masters student in the U.S. or Canada graduating in 2019 or later.
- We are also accepting applications from students who are currently enrolled in or accepted into a full-time, onsite cohort in one of these coding programs.
Please help us spread the word and encourage students to apply. They can apply here: Apply. Applications must be received by April 22, 2018.
