WHAT OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SAY

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!

Aedan Radvanyi

Point University, Georgia
As a footballer, being in a team was nothing new to me, but being away from home was. Working with the same people day in day out allows you to make new connections and provide you with a family type atmosphere away from home that really can help consolidate the issue of settling in.

Erlend Lunde Løfsgaard

Flagler College, Florida
The best about getting CSUSA’s help is that you always have guidance and people that helps you with everything from paperwork to the promotion of you as a player to hundreds of schools across the USA.

Lucy Ashworth

Lamar University, Texas
After only a short period of time in America, I have made friends that will last me a life time and soccer is so big in America that it makes the college experience amazing. Best memory: I have a few so winning the conference and winning the conference tournament was really special and being named on the All-Region team and all conference first team was good too.

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.

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.

Kristin Haugstad

La Salle University, Pennsylvania
College is "the full package"! The opportunity of playing at a high, almost professional, level, get a good education at an American university, and at the same experience a whole new place and a different culture, were definitely of the reasons for why I went.

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.
