GOLFING

Hello team, thank you again for ever­ything! That was really super fast. Within a few hours, I had many offers, the first of which was the FIU. I am very happy that you conta­cted me! I felt very well advised and looked after from the first minute! You are very fami­liar with the system and you have a large network of contacts to univer­si­ties and coaches in America. I would recom­mend Scho­l­ar­book anytime! You’re doing a great job!

“After gradua­ting from high school, I really wanted to concen­trate on sport and looked for ways in which I could still achieve academic secu­rity, as I think that’s very important. Since this is next to impos­sible in a reason­able way in Germany, I decided to study in the USA. In the begin­ning it was not easy to find a suitable univer­sity for me, as I had very high stan­dards in many aspects. The search process quickly turned out to be compli­cated and diffi­cult, espe­cially given the large number of options. Thanks to the profes­sional work of Scho­l­ar­book, however, I finally found my ideal univer­sity, I am very grateful for the help from start to finish.”

“I feel very comfor­table here, be it the univer­sity, the campus or the golf area! I have to say, I get along well with the teachers, but I have to look up a few voca­bu­lary …
So far, I’ve got on well with ever­yday life, I cook my own food and wash my laundry and it doesn’t really matter to me – it’s all a ques­tion of orga­niz­a­tion!
My coach Kory Thompson is really nice! She demands a lot, but is still human and has helped me a lot with my papers. The golf team is also great, we compete at a high level and it’s really fun! The prac­tice area is great – I can work a lot on my short game there, as they have diffe­rent types of grass and many small greens to play on and ever­ything is only acces­sible to the univer­sity team! And it’s just a great feeling to play the surroun­ding courts, many of them semi or comple­tely private. And one is right next to Augusta National – so camera out! ?
The campus is really nice! Not too big and green and most of the classes are not more than 23 students, so the teacher knows you (he does anyway as an athlete & German). The accom­mo­da­tions are great too! I can ride my bike to the golf course as well as to the super­market – and there is a shuttle to the univer­sity! There is also a swim­ming pool in the resi­den­tial area. In the apart­ment ever­yone has their own room and the kitchen is also rela­tively well equipped with a stove, micro, oven, etc.
On the whole, I can really recom­mend the univer­sity! My coach is also expli­citly looking for Euro­pean players and I would be really happy about a higher German quota or at least Euro­pean here – so let’s promote it !!!”

“I’ve been here at the Univer­sity of the Cumber­lands for about 5 weeks now and have felt at home since day one. Finding friends wasn’t a problem at all because ever­yone here is very open and also tries to make friends and make new acquain­tances. My coach and my team are already like a small family to me and the girls and boys from my team are my best friends here, with whom I spend the most time. I really enjoy the trai­ning and the tour­na­ments, even if it’s often a lot, because we are on the road for several hours every day or stay in hotels for several days when we travel for tour­na­ments, but if the time manage­ment is right, you get that simply regu­lated. I settled in very well and didn’t need a lot of time to get used to ever­ything, the change wasn’t that big and defi­ni­tely easier than I expected. I don’t have any problems at univer­sity either. I expected that I might have a bit of trouble swit­ching from German to English, but that wasn’t diffi­cult either; the campus is much more beau­tiful than it appeared in the pictures. The buil­dings and the moun­tain views are beau­tiful. Looking back, I am very grateful to Scho­l­ar­book, because without her I would never have found out about this univer­sity and would probably not be here now. They always supported me in ever­ything, stood by my side with words and deeds and, for example, relieved me of a lot of paper­work and thus simpli­fied the whole process.”
