Cost of U.S College Tuition
Scholarship Example
The price of tuition in the U.S is very different to the European institutions. Listed below are the different associations which provide the platform for players to compete and study in the U.S. Initial prices may seem very steep however, prospective student-athletes will be awarded greatly for their athletic and academic abilities creating a very good financial situation to further their education in the U.S. Scholarships can be increased throughout a college career for performance on the field as well as in the classroom. We are confident in all of our players signed with Next Step that they will be able to achieve a financially rewarding package for themselves and their families.
Here is an example if an athlete is offered an 85% scholarship to a 45,000 dollar college per year the full years bill for tuition, room and board will equal 6,750 dollars for academic year.
