WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

Marthe Berg Sørensen

Long Island University Post, New York
I recommend everyone to travel to the US to combine education and sports, because you learn so much more by being a student-athlete in another country. Both the language, the culture, and the things in life that cannot be taught on the school bench. You will have incredible fun!

Eirik Nielsen

Missouri University of Science & Technology
The reason for going to the USA was to have the opportunity to experience something new – something different. It is also a great way to combine higher education with swimming.

Hannah Brindle

Rio Grande University, Ohio
The social aspect of being in college is great, you get to be surrounded by your friends and team mates 24/7 it's like having a family away from home.

Sandra Ostad

University of Missouri
Everything it takes for you to succeed both as a student and athlete is here. The university wants you to succeed just as much as you and the staff will do everything in their power to make you the best you can be. Being a student-athlete is an amazing experience.

Amanda Hallesjö

Virginia Commonwealth University
The best about getting help from CSUSA is the personally tailored help they give you, and that they keep supporting you after traveling to your new home in the US. I have felt that I can send an email and get help even four years after I went in the first place, which gives me that extra safety.

Nicola Worthington

University of Bridgeport, Connecticut
For me it's simple, don't have any doubts just go for it. The experience I had in America was the best time of my life. I developed so much as a person, met so many amazing people from all corners of the world, and achieved things beyond my expectations. For me it's a no brainer!

Hjalmar Ekdal

University of North Carolina Wilmington
CSUSA's step by step guides and knowledge were great to work with!

Magnus Kristensen

Simon Fraser University, Canada
Being a student-athlete seemed like the perfect opportunity for me. You don't get the chance to live in North America that often, so playing university sports was the best chance for me to do so.
