WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

Ian Wu

Missouri State University
Best thing about being here is the complete package, good education, great facilities and possibilitites to develop as a player and human being.

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.

Sivert Dæhlie

Duke University, North Carolina
To study in the USA is a great experience, and the opportunity of being able to compete and develop in your sport while studying is unique. With CSUSA I felt comfortable and well-informed all the way through which made the process so much easier!

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.

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.

Øystein Fjeldberg

Wingate University, North Carolina
Getting to the US as a student-athlete is a long and demanding process that involves a lot of paperwork, and in my case I was really happy that CSUSA could help me through this.

Sara Asakskogen

CSUSA knows about the level of the sports at the universities, and that was a great reason for why I chose to get help. They can find a school, that fits your skills.
