In a non-polar covalent bond the sharing of electrons between the atoms is equal.
This depends on the difference between the electronegativities involved in the bond; when a difference don't exist or is minimal the bond is non-polar.
As an example the diatomic hydrogen bond is non-polar.

Is a covalent bond considered polar if the two atoms share the electrons equally?

No, a covalent bond is considered nonpolar when the two atoms share the electrons equally. If the electrons are not shared equally and there is an unequal distribution of charge, then the bond is considered polar.

What is a covalent bond called in which electrons are shared unqually?

A covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally is called a polar covalent bond. This type of bond occurs when one atom has a greater pull on the shared electrons, creating partial charges on the atoms involved in the bond.

What do electrons do for polar covalent?

When the difference of the electronegativities of the atoms is significanct the bond is covalent polar. The electrons are of course shared.
