Studying at an American university can cost as much as $65,000 a year! An amount that is unrealistic for almost all students. Therefore, almost all universities with college track & field teams offer the opportunity to obtain both an athletic and academic scholarship. The school’s track & field team receives an x budget to spend on athletes. This budget is used entirely for scholarships to make the education affordable for (international) students.
Slamstox helps you find a scholarship so that your college track & field experience becomes affordable. Some student-athletes receive a full scholarship, then you can play sports and study in America for four years free of charge. Other student-athletes receive a partial scholarship, in which case a (large) portion of the study costs are covered.
