please please if you have any hopes of pursuing a professional career in soccer do not come to this program. This is coming from a kid who put off a D1 soccer scholarship to pursue his dream of playing soccer abroad. You are expected to pay 15k before even having your tickets booked. Upon arrival you are sent on "trial" with a few local ameteur teams, it could even be a single trial as i remember i roommate of mine was forced into the first team he trained with. The next problem is the player pass which could actually take the whole duration of the program to come, i remember i roommate who actually DIDNT PLAY the whole year. I was lucky in being able to play half:). The living situation is decent unless they don't have any rooms left to house you in which case you will be sent to a hostel in the middle of nowhere with no internet. I was locked out of my hostel one night because i couldn't speak german at the time and didn't know the passcode!. I came to europe as a 17 year old with huge dreams and ambitions, put off college all i wanted was a fair shot but I truly feel like i wasted a year of my playing career. I can't wait to go home, please please don't do this program you can organize it all your self buy contacting local clubs etc.
