NCWIT (National Center for Women & Information Technology) seeks high-school-level young women to apply for the NCWIT Award for Aspirations in Computing! The NCWIT Award for Aspirations in Computing honors young women active and interested in computing and encourages them to pursue their passion for technology. Winners get cool prizes, gadgets, and scholarships, and can join a community of like-minded technical women. National award-winners are selected from across the country and Affiliate Award competitions are available in more than 30 regions nationwide. All girls at all computing levels are encouraged to apply-we'd like to recognize aspirations, not just accomplishments!
National award-winners receive:
* $500 in cash
* A laptop computer
* An engraved award (for both the student and her school)
* An expenses-paid trip to the national Award ceremony (for the student and her parent/guardian) on March 10, 2012
Affiliate Award will vary by state. Visit www.ncwit.org/award for details on Affiliate competitions.
