Whats great about this scholarship apart from the free tuition is that scholarship winners are considered for a summer internship with Microsoft in Redmond, Washington. The internship is for at least 12 weeks and is paid.

The deadline to apply for the scholarship is February 01, 2009. You can go to Microsoft’s website here to find the necessary forms and the official rules for the scholarship. Good luck.
