"After being released from Birmingham, I wasn’t sure what my next step would be. I didn’t really consider the U.S. at first, and I felt stuck not knowing how to continue both my education and football at the level I wanted. But after just a couple of calls with Soccer Student Pathway, everything changed. They took the time to understand what I wanted not just in football, but academically too.

They helped me find the perfect college where I can study psychology and play top-level college soccer. What felt like a dead end became a new opportunity. Thanks to SSP’s guidance and support, I now have a full scholarship to look forward to and a clear path ahead. I’m so glad I took that first call."

"I was interested in learning more about college in the USA, but I wasn’t sure if it would be the right path for me. At the time, I was training in and around the first team and still weighing up my options. I reached out to Soccer Student Pathway (SSP) for a call to learn more, and I’m so glad I did. From the very beginning, there was never any pressure to commit  just honest advice, regular check-ins, and guidance tailored to my situation.

Over the course of more than a year, SSP stayed in touch, keeping me updated on opportunities and helping me understand how things worked without asking for anything in return. There were no trial days or hard sells  just a consultative, player-first approach that genuinely stood out from the rest. Once I decided that going to the States was the right move, there was no question who I wanted helping me through it.

SSP arranged conversations with top NCAA Division I programs, and even had coaches fly over to watch me play live. Their level of care and professionalism was unmatched. I can’t thank them enough for the time and effort they put in not just when I said yes, but all the way through my journey. I’m also really looking forward to continuing to work with SSP throughout my college career and beyond as I push toward the professional game.”

“After being released in the UK, I wasn’t sure what my next step was or which route to take. It felt like everything I’d worked towards had suddenly stopped.I was recommended to speak with Soccer Student Pathway, and from the first conversation they gave me clarity and direction. They helped me understand the options available and guided me through the entire process step by step.Now I’m out in the US at Mercyhurst competing at NCAA Division 1 level and loving every minute of it. It’s been an unbelievable experience both on and off the pitch.Being released in the UK system doesn’t mean it’s the end there are other pathways out there, and SSP helped me find mine.”

“SSP played a huge role in helping me start my journey in the US. They helped me secure my first opportunity at NCAA Division 2 level and gave me the confidence to trust the pathway, even as a freshman.During my time at UNC Pembroke, I went on to win Conference Freshman of the Year, which was a massive step in my development both on and off the pitch.From there, SSP continued to support and guide me through the next stage of my journey, helping me transfer to NCAA Division 1 at Abilene Christian University.Their guidance, trust, and clear pathway have been key to where I am today. I’m grateful for the role they’ve played in my journey and would recommend them to any player looking to take that next step.”

"I had been at Liverpool for years and never really looked into the U.S. route mainly because I didn’t understand the process. It wasn’t until I found out I was being released that I even considered it. I thought it was too late, especially seeing some of my friends already commit to U.S. colleges.

But after just one call with Soccer Student Pathway, everything changed. They broke it all down clearly and helped me understand the opportunities that were still available. Within days, I had over 20 colleges reach out wanting to schedule calls which just shows the strength of SSP’s network and how well-connected they are in the U.S. college system.

They guided me through every step of the process from narrowing down the options to understanding what each program had to offer. What I appreciated most was that there was never any pressure. They never pushed me toward a certain school; instead, they allowed me to explore and find the right fit for me.

Now I’m committing to East Carolina University (ECU) on a full scholarship, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Knowing that James was always available or both me and my family whenever we had questions or needed support made the whole experience so much easier and more reassuring. I’m so grateful I took that first step."

“At first, I wasn’t sure if going to the US was the right path for me, but I opened up a dialogue with SSP early on in the year to explore my options. After seeing friends who had already gone through SSP and how positive their experiences were, I decided to reach back out and take it more seriously. From there, SSP guided me through the whole process and helped me make the move in the spring on a full scholarship.It’s honestly been the best decision I’ve made I couldn’t be happier at App State and I’m really excited for the season to get started in the fall.”

"I had been with another company for several months, but the options they were presenting just didn’t match my aspirations. I felt like I was being told to wait until 2026, even though I knew I was ready. As soon as I connected with Soccer Student Pathway, everything changed. Within days, I had multiple calls lined up with top programs, including schools from power conferences.

They understood what coaches were looking for and knew how to position me the right way. Beyond just finding opportunities, they were always available—whether it was help with NCAA eligibility, visa guidance, or just answering questions whenever I needed support. The communication was constant and personal, and that made all the difference.

Thanks to SSP, I found a university that matched both my athletic goals and academic needs, and I secured a full scholarship."
