Hi Kesha, Thank you for your interest in participating in the GNOME community! It does seem unlikely that you would be able to obtain travel sponsorship from the GNOME Foundation to come to GUADEC this year because it's past the application deadline and someone needs to be a Foundation Member, intern, or speaker to get the sponsorship.
I would like to encourage you to join https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-in-list and plan ahead to participate in https://wiki.gnome.org/Hackfests/India2013 You might also like to get involved with http://www.wfs-india.org , which was started by several Outreach Program for Women alums. Please start contributing to GNOME in your spare time and plan ahead to come to GUADEC next year!

However, the deadline for GUADEC travel sponsorship application was in May, see https://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/2013-May/msg00166.html and from personal experience it's unlikely that you could arrange a visa within two weeks... But in case things don't work out this year it would be awesome to see you at next year's GUADEC conference in Strasbourg (France)!
