The Annual Google Scholars’ Retreat at the Googleplex

We know how important a supportive peer network can be for a student’s success. Google’s scholarship recipients from North America will be invited to visit Google headquarters in Mountain View, California for the Google Scholars’ Retreat. The retreat will include workshops, speakers, panelists, breakout sessions and social activities scheduled over a 3-day period. Students will have the opportunity to explore the Googleplex and enjoy the San Francisco Bay Area as they get to know other talented computer science students from across the country.

The Google Anita Borg Scholars will be joined by other undergraduate and graduate scholarship recipients from North America. For more information about our other scholarships, please see here.
