Program Overview

Program Description:

We’re starting a movement. Why should competitive football finish at graduation for those who aren’t 260lbs and run a 4.4 forty? Want to strap on your helmet and relive those moments? How about combining this with studying in one of the great cities of the world? One more chance… Play football again whilst studying in London, Edinburgh or Oxford. With the NFL attracting 85,000 to Wembley Stadium every year when they visit London, football has grown to become one of the most popular sports played at British colleges and universities. Many are now running their football programs around the specific needs of visiting American students, and with most British players only taking up the sport once they get to college you can expect to be a star player no matter how good you were in High School. Relive those moments and create better ones. If you’re a football fan interested in the thrill of international travel with the comfort of home – then a semester or two with us is a must. Our Study Abroad Programs offer you the time to travel to exciting destinations, play your favorite sport, make lifelong friends and enhance your career prospects. And with an entire football team on your side from the moment you arrive on campus you will have the huge advantage of a large network of friendly locals to make you feel at home, priceless in those first few weeks.

With five British colleges on our program we offer the widest selection of courses available, here are just a few examples: Accounting and Finance Animal Behaviour and Welfare Anthropology Architecture & Built Environment Arts Management, Administration and History Biological Sciences Business, Economics and Marketing Business, Law & Diplomacy Communication, Media and Culture Computer Science & Software Engineering Education and Human Development Engineering English Studies and Literature Environmental Sciences Exercise, Nutrition and Health Geography History Industrial & Product Design Information Systems Journalism, Communications & Media Mathematical Sciences Modern Languages Music, Sound Technology and Digital Music Nursing Performing Arts Philosophy Pre-Medicine, Health & Nutrition Politics Psychology, Sociology & Behavior Publishing Regional Studies & Liberal Arts Religion and Theology Sociology Science & Engineering Sports Science Tourism Youth and Community Work and Applied Theology The colleges we work with represent a broad spectrum of academic capabilities and we can accept student with a GPA from 2.0 upwards.
