Success stories
World Cup Eugene
A scholarship from a U.S. university is the basis for a successful athletic and academic career.
A good example of this outstanding success was the World Athletics Championships in Eugene in 2022. Many of the medalists were either active or former student-athletes at an American college. Hence, studying in the US can be the first important step to become part of the world elite.

He competed for the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) from 2016-2017 and has since continued to train there as a professional athlete.
