<H1><SPAN lang=EN>Google Lime Scholarship for Students with
Disabilities<o:p></o:p></SPAN></H1>
<P><SPAN lang=EN>Access to knowledge is our thing. When it comes to higher
education for promising scholars, we don’t want anything to stand in the way.
That’s why we’re proud to partner with Lime. Google is committed to helping
the innovators of the future make the most of their talents by providing
scholarships and networking retreats for computer science students with
disabilities. Recipients of the Google Lime Scholarship will receive a
scholarship for the 2009–2010 academic year. Selected students will also be
invited to attend the all-expenses-paid retreat at the Googleplex in Mountain
View, CA, in 2010. Scholarships will be awarded based on the strength of
candidates’ academic background and demonstrated passion - $10,000USD for
those studying in the US and $5,000CAD for those studying in Canada (based on
average tuition costs).<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
