FAQ

Everything and beyond you need to know about studying in the USA. This section clarifies the key topics, helping you make confident, well-informed decisions.

1. What is the difference between the Recruiting+ package and the Top College Prep package?

In TOP College Prep, we build your value. In Recruiting+, we turn it into real offers from universities.

TOP College Prep: We work with athletes starting their freshman year of high school. We build your personal brand — from academic results to athletic marketing. The goal is to maximize your value so that when the moment comes, you get the best scholarships and have the freedom to choose.

Recruiting+: Typically starts in your junior year of high school. It's an intensive, results-driven service: we create a customized plan, prepare you for language tests, produce a top-quality video, and actively promote your complete profile to coaches in the USA.

2. What makes the U.S. college system different?

The U.S. college system is built on continuous evaluation throughout the semester. Students complete assignments, projects, and midterms, spreading the workload over time. What it means in practice: Consistent performance matters most—so one final exam doesn’t determine your entire grade. If you stay on track during the term, a weaker final won’t significantly impact your overall result.

3. How many types of colleges and universities are there in the U.S.?

In the United States, there are three types of higher education institutions: universities, colleges, and community colleges.

University offers undergraduate (bachelor’s), graduate (master’s), and doctoral programs.

College typically offers only undergraduate programs or is part of a larger university.

Community College offers two-year programs leading to an associate’s degree, which serves as an ideal stepping stone for transfer to a university.

4. Does Move2Edu guarantee scholarship offers?

No. Scholarship decisions are made by college coaches. However, our experience and network help us consistently secure strong offers for the athletes we work with. If we don’t place you, you don’t pay—full transparency, no risk.

5. What is athletic scholarship?

An athletic scholarship is financial support awarded to students based primarily on their sporting ability, enabling them to attend a college or university.

6. What is academic scholarship?

An academic scholarship is financial support awarded to students based on outstanding academic performance and demonstrated academic excellence.

7. Can a student combine athletic and academic scholarship?

Yes! Many institutions offer combined athletic and academic scholarships, allowing students to secure funding based on both strong academic performance and athletic ability.

8. How long does it take to complete a college degree in the U.S.?

Most university and college programs take approximately four years to complete. The academic year is typically divided into two semesters, each lasting about four to five months. Community college programs usually take 2 years and lead to an associate’s degree. Many students then transfer to a four-year university to complete their bachelor’s degree.

9. Can I play professionally after I graduate?

Absolutely! Many international student-athletes continue into professional careers in the U.S. or abroad, with college and university programs serving as a key pipeline for scouts and professional opportunities.

10. Is an American degree internationally recognized?

Yes. A degree from an American college or university is recognized worldwide and widely regarded as a mark of quality and strong preparation. If you choose to pursue your career abroad, your degree may need to be officially verified through a standard recognition process (nostrification), depending on the country. In most cases, this process is straightforward. If you work for a U.S.-based company—whether in the U.S. or internationally—your degree is typically recognized without any additional steps.

11. How is Move2Edu different from other recruiting agencies?

The key difference is that we are not a one-time agency—we are a long-term partner. While many agencies focus solely on securing a scholarship, Move2Edu operates as a community platform that supports your personal development, builds an athletic portfolio, and fosters lifelong connections.

12. What If I decide during my studies that the USA isn't the right fit for me. Will I face any fines?

No. Scholarship agreements are typically awarded for one year and renewed annually under normal conditions. If you choose to study in the U.S. for only one year or decide to leave early, you can do so without repaying your scholarship or incurring hidden fees. That said, we encourage a long-term commitment to fully benefit from the experience.
