Who wants to go to Hacker School? Introducing Etsy Women Hacker Grants
Few opportunities come around where you can do the following:

2.) Go to NYC for FREE for the summer…
3.) Go to NYC for free for the summer and get to go to Hacker School!
Well, lady, we have got all that for you.
Geek Girl has been asked by the powers that be from Hacker School in NYC to get the word out about this incredible opportunity for some talented ladies who are looking for a life of being a hacker…er, well programmer…
We are helping Hacker School get the word out about their $50,000 worth of scholarships for female programmers provided by Etsy. Yes, Etsy. Mighty gracious of them indeed!
If you are unfamiliar, Hacker School is a free 3 month intensive workshop in NYC for programmers to get better. Although it is free, living in NYC and not working for 3 months isn’t. So that’s where the scholarships come into play. The summer session runs from June 4th to August 25th and the application deadline is May 7th.
