WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

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!

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.

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.

Severin Sørlie

Syracuse University, New York
I was not ready to give up on my soccer dream after high school, and at the same time I wanted to begin my higher education studies. Therefore, college was a great opportunity for getting my education paid for through scholarships, and to play soccer at a high level.

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.

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.

Kristine Kloda

Keiser University, Florida
Being a student-athlete in the USA is so much fun. Not just traveling around to play golf on fantastic courses with a great team, but also to experience American culture and way of life is an incredible experience. I am very lucky to be able to combine studies with golf in Florida.

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.
