Tennis scholarships in the United States

As mentioned above, the programs are geared towards tennis players at amateur level.

Players who have trained at this level for years and meet the minimum application requirements are eligible.

Likewise, high-level players who have represented their country in a national squad (with an ATP or WTA Ranking) or players who have shown promising results in national tournaments would make excellent scholarship candidates.

It’s no secret that American universities are among the best in the world.

The most prestigious universities in the country – MIT, Yale, Harvard, Stanford and Caltech – have consistently produced a plethora of notable alumni.

Successful candidates will not only have access to one of the best education systems today, but will also reap other benefits such as:

• Improving language skills: experts in second language acquisition agree that, in order to truly learn a language, speakers must be in constant contact with the culture of that language. The best way to do this is to spend some time living in the country to assimilate different dialects and learn how to skillfully navigate everyday conversations. Given that English is extremely important in the workplace, the possibilities of finding a job after graduation are greatly increased.
• Experiencing a different culture: this teaches us on a personal, academic and spiritual level. Hundreds of students from around the world come to study at American universities, creating a multicultural environment in which they can make new friends.
• Combining sport and studies: the academic program in American universities is adapted to the students’ needs. In this way, students will not have any difficulties in combining sport and studies thanks to flexible schedules and special programs.
