Scholarship Criteria Rules

These new scholarships reflect Reddit’s and Hackbright’s shared mission to improve equality in tech for underrepresented groups. Scholarships will be awarded based on a variety of criteria, including, but not limited to: need, technical expertise, and belonging to part of a group that has been historically underrepresented in STEM (ex. Black, LatinX, American Indian, LGBTQ+, and/or people with disabilities).

It is the mission of Hackbright to #changetheratio of women in tech. Since 2012, Hackbright Academy has graduated 700+ women with the skills to be software engineers, and our goal is to train more women faster. If you’ve wanted to transition into software engineering, now is the time.
