WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

Rasmus Hansen

I came over here because it's New York City and i wanted to try something new. Herei i have rediscovered the joy of playing soccer. Had istayed in Denmark, I would've probably stopped playing.

Runar Borgen

University of Tampa, Florida
Starting college in the US is one of the biggest investments you can make in yourself. You give yourself a better chance of succeeding with both sports and school, in which case the best is only good enough. You will get the best by getting help from CSUSA through the entire process.

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!

Evie Hepworth

Calumet St. Joseph, Indiana
The best thing about being a student athlete in the US is the fact that you get to play the sport you love each and everyday whilst competing at the highest level. You also get to form a family away from home with both your teammates but also your coach as you are together all of the time.

Mariah Aplin

Cumberland University, Tennessee
I get to play the sport I love whilst gaining an education. I get to meet so many more people and it's full of opportunities. It is a great experience.

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.

Jens Madsen Hordvik

Barton College, North Carolina
I have become more mature and independent, by studying in the US, and every time I am home in Norway, I get to hear how jealous people are, and how they wished they had done the same.

Mathias Bunæs

King University, Virginia
Any athlete wishing to combine sports and studies in the States should take advantage of CSUSA’s knowledge and experience. The life as a student-athlete is an experience that I miss, and that I will never forget.
