contents We consider minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of the Ginzburg-Landau energy with quadratic divergence or curl penalization on a simply-connected two-dimensional domain $Ω$. On the boundary, strong tangential anchoring is imposed. We prove a priori estimates for $u_\varepsilon$ in $L^\infty$ uniform in $\varepsilon$ and that the Lipschitz constant of $u_\varepsilon$ blows up like $\varepsilon^{-1}$. We then deduce compactness for a subsequence that converges to an $\mathbb{S}^1-$valued map with either one interior point defect or two boundary half-defects. We conclude our study with a proof that no boundary vortices can occur in the divergence penalized case.
