The US adventure is first and foremost a unique life experience, whereby students get to live in to- tal immersion on a large university campus for 4 (Bachelor) to 5 years (Master). It also involves joining a high-level university ten- nis team with standards that, in some cases, are close to the professional level. It is also the possi- bility to finance part or the totality of your studies through tennis (see Ranking/Scholarship Equiva- lence table). It’s also the assurance of a solid university baggage, recognised around the world and very sought after by recruiters, a complete mastering of the English SCHOLARSHIP USA language, and most importantly the acquisition of “the American fighting spirit” - an essential asset to possess in today’s professional world.
