About the University
The main reason I decided to come to the United States to earn a college degree is I knew that a lot of Icelanders had been to the States to play soccer and get a degree, and most of them liked the experience. I got soccer scholarship offers from many universities, but I liked the program and the campus best at USI. As a guy from Iceland, I have always wanted to try to live somewhere where the weather is warmer, having the opportunity to do that and get a degree at the same time was too good an offer to not give it a try.
