Wikimedians are free to apply and they will treat them with all due
consideration.
Please also note that the recipients will be required to cover all the
expenses on their own and then present the documentation of those expenses
to the them in order to qualify for the refund.
While the number of WMF scholarships for Wikimania are limited,We strongly
encourage Wikimedians from India to also apply and utilize this opportunity
too.

Hi,

programme for Wikimedians willing to attend Wikimania 2012 in
Washington, D.C. This year, apart from up to 10 scholarships for
Wikimedians from Poland, we are also going to grant up to 6
scholarships for Wikimedians from other countries. Only countries
which have lower national income per capita than Poland (according to
World Bank 2010 stats) are eligible. We are particularly willing to
reach out to the Wikimedians from the former USSR countries (except
Estonia, which doesn't meet the income criteria) and from the Balkans
(except Greece and Slovenia, for the same reason). The scholarship
covers travel and accommodation expenses, as well as conference fee.
More details are available here:
