StatusGator believes increasing gender diversity in technology is essential to building a more inclusive and innovative future.

Women and girls bring vital perspectives to the world of technology, yet they’re often underrepresented and underserved in computer science and other tech-related fields. From an early age, gender imbalances in classrooms and clubs can create barriers to entry and belonging, leading to a persistent gap in STEM. This scholarship aims to help close that gap by supporting and encouraging the next generation of women in tech.

Any female-identifying high school senior who is pursuing technology may apply for this scholarship opportunity.

To apply, tell us what sparked your interest in technology, how that experience has affected your goals, what impact you hope to make through your career, what challenges you have faced, and what excites you about the future of the field.
