Welcome!
The American Swedish Institute offers scholarships for two purposes:
- To reduce financial barriers to all our progams, for anyone who needs it.
- To welcome students from underrepresented groups and cultural communities to our adult handcraft, food and language classes. Please apply for that scholarship here.
Please note that select ASI programs have limited seats available for free admission via the MELSA smARTpass program, released on a monthly basis. A 25% Intergenerational discount is always available for youth joining an adult in applicable programs (see pricing at checkout).
How it works
Financial assistance is avialable for our virtual and in person programs. We do not require any justification or proof of income. ASI may limit the number of scholarship spaces avaialble in any program, and scholarship seats are avialable on a first come, first serve basis. If a program has no seats available, we'll gladly add you to the waitlist and/or work with you to find a suitable alternative. Any individual may receive financial assistance for up to $400 per calendar year.
Please note, we keep our classes small and some programs run over multiple dates, so make sure you will be able to attend the full program before applying for financial assistance. Please notify ASI or your instructor if you won't be able to attend a program for any reason.
Please fill out the form below and we'll respond as soon as possible with a check out code for your class registration at whatever cost you choose.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Britta at brittaw@asimn.org or 612-871-4907.
