Financial Assistance and Scholarships

In support of our guiding principle, "We are welcoming," Minneapolis Rowing Club seeks to reduce financial barriers to the sport of rowing in our community. Some examples include a sliding-scale fee for some programs, individual payment plans, and financial assistance available to both youth and adult members to assist with membership dues, program fees, and/or regatta costs.  

All current and future members of Minneapolis Rowing Club are eligible to apply for financial assistance.  Applications will be reviewed by the Financial Assistance Committee and treated with the utmost confidentiality.  The committee reviews applications on a case-by-case basis, with attention to each applicant’s circumstances. Decisions regarding the award amount are based on financial need, rather than on individual merit or athletic ability. Additionally, the committee takes into account the current availability of funds within the financial assistance program.

To be considered for financial assistance, please complete the MRC Confidential Application. 

To set up an individual payment plan, please contact Club Administrator Jen Sowins

The financial assistance process is led by the MRC Treasurer.
