Deadlines
Scholarships will be reviewed in batches. Please apply as early as possible to increase your chance of securing a scholarship.
- Early scholarship deadline (Batch 1): To be determined
- Final scholarship deadline (Batch 2): To be determined
Eligibility
You must live in North America to be eligible for the scholarship. All non-North American applications will be automatically rejected.
Scholarship types
We offer two types of scholarships:
- Full scholarship (accommodation and travel cost)
- Partial scholarship (accommodation or travel cost)
You may also select "I am applying for a full scholarship, but would be able to attend if awarded a partial scholarship."
Evaluation process
You will be asked a number of questions on your contributions to the Wikimedia movement from which your application will be assessed by the scholarship committee.
Scholarship applicants will be notified of their outcome after the scholarship committee evaluates their application. For those that have been successful, we will then be in further contact about booking accommodation and travel arrangement.
