Tuition Reduction Scholarship Program

Triangle Rowing Club (TRC)  wants to make the sport of rowing more accessible to our community. In support of that goal, we will promote the sport of rowing through outreach programs and need-based financial aid. 

Our TRC Financial Assistance fund is an important factor in promoting enrollment by awarding eligible families the monetary boost needed to bring rowing costs within their reach. The club benefits by extending this helping hand, so we earnestly encourage those in need to apply. You can rely on discrete and thoughtful consideration.

We offer Financial Assistance two times a year: once at the start of the Fall/Winter seasons and again at the start of the Spring/Summer seasons. All members of the TRC Rowing Club program are eligible to apply for Financial Assistance funds, which cover part of the seasonal fees. Previous rowing experience is not required.

Key Dates 

All applicants should wait until after decisions are made to register for the season in Sports Engine.

• Open Now - Application Process Open
• Sept 3rd - Applications Process Closes 
• Sept 10th - Decisions Reported

Eligibility 

Financial Assistance can range from 25% to 75% of the total season's fees. The TRC Financial Assistance Committee makes awards based primarily on financial need. In addition, without disclosing the applicant’s financial information, the Committee asks for comments from the coaching staff about the rower’s attitude, commitment, participation, and if the rower has participated in past seasons. Also, the parent/guardian of financial aid recipients must satisfy the standard TRC volunteer requirement to maintain eligibility.

Confidentiality

The application materials and review process are completely confidential. Applications are read only by the TRC Financial Assistance Committee. All committee members are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of the application and the decision-making process.

Application Requirements

1. All applicants, new and returning, must complete and submit the TRC Tuition Reduction Scholarship Application Form. Please note this form must be submitted in full even if you have filled one out in the past. (There is no longer a separate form for returning applicants.)
2. Provide a statement of financial need/essay. Other documentation is welcome but not required as part of the consideration and will be kept confidential.
3. The athlete must already meet minimum swimming proficiency requirements.

Remember, if you are applying for the TRC Tuition Reduction Scholarship, please wait until you receive a decision before signing up for the next TRC season.  If you are approved you will be provided with a discount code that you will use during the registration process.

The spring season runs from the middle of February through the middle of May, but some crews may continue practicing and competing well into June if they qualify for Nationals.
