After the Contest
Once the contest period has closed, Mentoring Organizations will have a designated window to determine their Grand Prize Winners and one backup winner.
The 10 Students with the highest accumulated number of points with your organization will have their comprehensive body of work evaluated by your team. To view these 10 Students, the Organization Administrator will need to go My Dashboard -> Nominate the Grand Prize Winners link
Click on your Organization. A drop-down list appears with the names of the 10 highest scoring Students in each of the roles:
Organizations will discuss amongst themselves the comprehensive body of work of these 10 students considering thoroughness, creativity and quality of work. Once Mentoring Organizations have determined their 5 Finalists they will select them in the list, naming 2 of those students as Grand Prize Winners and a third as a backup winner. When you press Submit your choices are sent to the Contest Administrator.
An error will appear if you choose the same student multiple times accidentally.
All Grand Prize Winners are officially announced on the Google Open Source blog first and then the Grand Prize Winners will appear on the Google Code-in site. These tasks are completed by the Contest Administrator.
