Which RMOC scholarship should I apply for?
What does a Rosen Method Open Center Inclusion and Equity scholarship (RMOC IES) cover?
RMOC IE Scholarship is awarded for one student per year who will receive free tuition only for the certification program in either Rosen Method bodywork or Rosen Method movement. The scholarship cannot be applied to travel or other incidental costs associated with attending. The scholarship is for RMOC sponsored events only. One event at another Rosen Method center can count toward certification at the RMOC; payment for events at another Rosen Method center are not included in the RMOC IE Scholarship. If you apply for this scholarship, it will apply only to future tuition costs and no reimbursement for past tuition costs will be included in the scholarship.
Inclusion and Equity Scholarships awards are for tuition costs towards certification only.
You may apply for financial assistance more than once.
For Rosen Movement $100- $300 (maximum) scholarship is awarded for each accepted student per intensive. For each Rosen Movement Intensive up to $1000 is available for distribution. Each student is able to receive up to $1,000 in scholarship money during their movement training.
For Rosen Bodywork financial scholarship awards are approximately 1/3 or less of the tuition costs per workshop or intensive. One financial scholarship is awarded per intensive.
May I apply for multiple scholarships?
Who decides whether I receive a scholarship?
Scholarship applications are reviewed by the RMOC Scholarship Committee made up of Rosen Method Bodywork practitioners and/or Rosen Method Movement teachers, and one Senior Teacher.
If my application is not accepted, can I reapply for my next RMOC event?
Yes, you are welcome to reapply for RMOC Financial assistance for subsequent events if your application is not accepted.
The RMOC will keep your scholarship application on file in our secure Google Drive.
If you have been accepted for an RMOC Financial Scholarship this information will be stored for 18 months.
If you have been accepted for the RMOC IE Scholarship your information will be stored in your student file until your certification.
What happens to my data after I submit my application?
Students will be notified of approval or denial of application via email.
Your award letter will detail how to proceed.

We request that you submit your payment plan on your desired monthly payment date. We will only allow you to change your payment date once per payment plan.

Refunds/Cancellations:
We hope that you will be able to attend the event you register for, but if something interferes, please understand that our cancellation policy is necessary to cover some of the cost of organizing and running the event. All cancellation requests must be received by the time frame indicated below:
If RMOC has to cancel an event, you will receive a full refund, or you may transfer the full amount to another event.
If you cancel, the policy is as follows: an administrative fee of $50 will always be withheld from refunds.
Full refund (minus $50), if cancellation is a minimum of thirty days prior to the event.
50% of the tuition (minus $50) if cancellation is a minimum of 15 days prior to the event. Option: apply the full tuition to the next event (minus $50).
If cancellation takes place one week before the event, there will be no refund. (If cancellation is due to a family health emergency, tuition can be applied to the next event.)
I need to cancel a training module, what are my options?
If you are unable to attend an event for which you are registered, you must notify the RMOC. You will need to be in contact and discuss your circumstances with the teacher organizing the event.
