Ideally, Students should want to begin
studying in the USA immediately after
graduating from high school (after grade 13
or 12 respectively) and thus be eligible for a
scholarship for the full four undergraduate
years.
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
It is the coach, who grants the scholarship
but the applicant must be accepted by the
college or university to be allowed to play
on its team in the first place.
All international applicants have to be
high school graduates. In addition, every
single international applicant (except from
English speaking countries) has to take the
TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) or IELTS
(
International English Language Testing System).
The sports divisions also require applicants
to take the SAT (college admission test) to be
cleared in the licensing and admission process.
