Hello!

To begin: Google has not announced the list of organizations in GSoC
2015, so we don't know whether we're selected or not.  We hope we are,
of course, but we can't take their selection for granted.

But assuming we are selected, a student's best chances for being
selected are making sure that they have a good portfolio of
well-written, well-designed software that they wrote.  It also helps
if a student has written a few small, thoughtful, well-designed
patches for Tor in the past, so we have a feeling of what it's like to
work with them.
