Re: Register Now for NANOG 80 Virtual!

For the sake of maximum pedanticness, the NANOG scholarship program and the
NANOG fellowship program are very different things.

NANOG scholarships are the traditional "Here's some money for non-alcohol
related college expenses."

https://nanog.org/outreach/scholarship-program/
https://learnmore.scholarsapply.org/nanog/

NANOG fellowships are funds to assist those who may not have the financial
ability or support from their employer to attend NANOG meetings and events.

https://nanog.org/outreach/professional-development/
https://nanog.org/resources/fellowships/ ( This link currently 404's ; I
let NANOG staff know already. )

I can't speak to what the requirements are for fellowship eligibility; that
may be on that page that currently 404s.
