These are the steps to follow for applying to GSoC with LSF:

  1. Join the LSF-GSOC mailing list and introduce yourself. Not only do we get to know you, but you can use the mailing list to get feedback on project ideas and get help as you start working with the code base. Keep in mind that the more specific and clear your questions are on the mailing list the more likely you are to get a good answer

  2. Review our ideas page to see if you find a project that is interesting to you.

  3. You will need to create an account on GitHub and get awareness to the code bases along with your application.

  4. Develop your application. We suggest putting your application on the LSF wiki for reviewing. This lets people who aren't in Google's website review your application, and it also is much easier to read things in the wiki than in Google's website. However, please remember that you MUST SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION IN GOOGLE'S WEBSITE. It is not possible to accept you if you do not do this.

  5. Please make sure your application follows the template.

  6. Submit your application early and discuss with mentors. You will be able to edit your application up until the deadline, so if you have a draft, submit it now, and update it as you modify it.

If you have any other questions, first check if they are answered in the FAQ. Then ask on the LSF GSOC list or Gitter chat.
