Fedora Scholarship applications now being accepted

Are you a recent graduate of High School, or graduating in 2012, and planning on pursuing a college degree? Are you an active contributor to open source projects and Fedora?

If so, check out the Fedora scholarship. Applications are now being accepted until February 24th, 2012. Details can be found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Scholarship

Along with pride and recognition from the awesome Fedora Project community, the winner will receive the following (copied from the Wiki page linked above):

The Fedora Scholarship is intended to assist in the recipient’s college or university education. To this end, the recipient will receive $2,000 USD per year for each of the four years that he/she is in college.

Additionally, the recipient will receive funding for travel and lodging at the FUDCon nearest to his/her location each year of the scholarship, should he/she choose to attend.

The winner will also have the opportunity to administer the scholarship the following year. This looks great on a resume!

If you have any questions, and to apply (following the procedure outlined on the Wiki paged linked above), email scholarship@fedoraproject.org. Good luck!
