&lt;p&gt;Registration for the &lt;a href="https://macadmins.psu.edu/"&gt;MacAdmins at Penn State conference&lt;/a&gt;, and $2,500 (USD) to cover applicable expenses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="what-is-the-criteria-for-grant-eligibility"&gt;What is the criteria for grant eligibility?&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grant program applicants should self-identify with one or more of the following criteria:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You are early in, or starting, your career in technology&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You have not previously been able to attend an event or conference of this type&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You are currently unable to self-fund, or secure institutional funding for event attendance&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3 id="are-there-restrictions-on-what-the-grant-can-be-used-for"&gt;Are there restrictions on what the grant can be used for?&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The grant&amp;rsquo;s purpose is to enable the selected participants to travel to and attend the MacAdmins at Penn State conference, and to participate fully in the conference with the community. The Mac Admins Foundation believes that providing an unstructured cash grant is the best way to allow Mac Admins to cover necessary expenses without requiring pre-approval.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
