Accepted athletes will be notified no later than February 28, 2025

Depending on when you submit your information and when you attended an ID Camp, you may be waiting to hear from us. You can always view your application status in the member portal by following these steps: 

Log in to your USRowing member portal HERE

• Once logged into your account select "Camps" from the lefthand menu
• If your application is still under review, it will appear under the 'Application Pending' tab.
• If your application has been accepted and is awaiting payment and confirmation, it will appear under the 'Invitations to Review' tab.
• If your application has been accepted and a deposit has been made, it will appear under the 'Enrollment Complete' tab.

You will receive directions from your camp director regarding the remaining balance payment and any additional requirements.  Payment is due in full by May 1.

If you qualify for Worlds through U19 Trials, your deposit will be transferred to your Worlds fee and any difference will be reimbursed.

The cost of Selection Camp has increased for 2025 due to a smaller pool of invited athletes. With fewer participants, the overall expenses are distributed among a smaller group, leading to a higher per-person cost.

Plan on rowing A LOT! There are laundry facilities, but a general rule of thumb is to pack a week’s worth of clothing.

We strive to make our camps accessible and affordable to families and athletes in need through our United We Row scholarships. If you require a scholarship, please fill out the application using this FORM. The more information you are able to include, the better!

Please submit your additional materials (race recording, etc.) by completing this FORM. Please instruct your current Head Coach to submit your recommendation by completing this FORM.

Updated Coxswain Requirements for 2025: Coxswain identification and selection for a U19 Selection Camp will be based on a multi-faceted evaluation process, with a primary focus on time spent in 8+’s going World Class Speed (see chart below).
