To ensure that the Submitty Org Admins and Mentors have all of the information about your ideas, project plan, and availability for Google Summer of Code 20XX, we ask you to use the Submitty Applicant Template.

The template will include:

• Your skills, relevant coursework, non-course experience, and future career goals that qualify you to work on this project.

• Approximate schedule for the summer: start date, end date, and number of hours of work per week.

• Description of any classes, employment, or other time commitments during that time period.

• Engagement with the Submitty project team during the application period. This includes participation in public discussions on our Zulip server: asking technical questions about issues and work-in-progress PRs, helping other prospective applicants with installation hiccups and development problems, etc.

• Links to all GitHub pull requests to the Submitty organization and their current status (submitted, reviewed, revised, approved, merged). NOTE: significant/large pull requests take more time to review for completeness and correctness. It’s ok if your work is not merged before the GSoC application deadline.

• Links to all Submitty PRs authored by other developers that you have reviewed. NOTE: reviews should be thoughtful and substantive. PR reviews that simply comment “LGTM” are not as helpful.
