Both current students and rising freshmen are eligible for this scholarship. The $1,500 scholarship will be awarded to one student and the money will be transferred to their University to go towards the tuition fee.

The choice will be made by a scholarship committee of 2 game publishing experts, and 2 game developers. To apply, applicants need to submit one piece of work.
