WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

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.

Anka Grotle

University of Texas San Antonio
As a student-athlete everything is set in place for you and your team to succeed both athletically and academically. It will be demanded more of you there, and discipline is a key word. As a consequence you have a massive development as a person, something I think is a big advantage for your results in school and when you’re making the step into the work life.

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.

Patrick Nielsen

Michigan State University
The setup over here exceeded my wildest fantasies. we have more fans than any Danish Division 1 team, better facilites than the Superliga clubs and then it's something else flying to Miami for an away game rather than driving a bus to Thisted in Denmark.

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.

Marius Krathe

Stony Brook University, New York
It was amazing to play a game broadcasted live on ESPN away to University of Connecticut. It was over 4,000 people in attendance that created a great atmosphere around the game. I played the whole game, and this is one of the biggest things I have experienced as a soccer player.

Martine Olsen

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Florida
Not only do you get to play the sport you love while getting your education, you get to live in another country and culture, and to make friends from all over the world. And you will separate yourself from the competition when you get out in the job market.
