Two types of scholarships are available:

Scholarships for 85% of the price are available for families currently receiving public assistance (TANF, MFIP, General Assistance, WIC, Medicaid or Medical Assistance, SSI, Foodstamps, MN Care, or Section 8 Housing). You will be awarded or declined depending on the availability of funds.

Scholarships for 50% of the price are available for other families needing assistance. These awards are based on financial need and availability of funds.

About the Scholarship Program

Funding for the scholarship program is made possible by generous contributions from Science Museum employees and volunteers, individual contributors, sale of summer camp t-shirts, The McKnight Foundation, and the Andersen Family Foundation.

Generous contributions from businesses and individuals help us realize the dream of making assistance available for all who need it. In recent years, we have expanded this program to include more scholarships for summer day camps.
