SMUSA Reviews 

A People First Scholarship Agency

Having began my time at SMUSA as a staff member, and now a client playing in the US, I have seen Stephen's work-ethic and reputation amongst college coaches, from both angles.
I quickly learnt how well-respected Stephen was within college soccer, and that SMUSA actually care about the individual, rather than shipping off as many kids as possible. Many other agencies today prioritise profit, rather than the student-athlete experience.
By choosing SMUSA, you will be helped along the process of gaining a soccer scholarship, however, your character and personality will also be considered when placing you, rather than simply you as a player. And this service does not stop when you gain a scholarship, Stephen and the team will be at-hand to assist you throughout your journey in the US. I cannot recommend SMUSA highly enough!

Stephen’s team helped make the process of getting everything sorted smooth. The setup for the trial days, showcase, and tour allowed me to perform to the best of my ability and experience the student-athlete life. I would recommend Stephen to anyone looking into the American college route

Stephen Murray and SMUSA Scholarships are THE company to contact if your son or daughter are interested in pursuing their soccer and academic career in the USA. They are incredibly well respected amongst university coaching staff in the USA and understand the best fit for your child’s sporting and academic standards to ensure they have a successful experience. The assistance they provide during the process and while in the USA is exceptional and will enable the best chance of success on and off the pitch. Don’t hesitate, contact these guys, you won’t regret it.

Having coached and worked with Stephen I can attest to his knowledge of the US college soccer landscape and his connections around the country. Most importantly, I’ve seen firsthand his ability to match players with the right institutions and his integrity in dealing with those of differing ability levels in order to guarantee placement in the right level of competition and an educational experience setting aspiring youngsters up for a successful future.

I have known Stephen for many years now. We played against each other in college and he knows the US college landscape inside/out. Stephen knows how to get the correct fit for the players. He will be very honest and open about the level of the player, which is the best method as the player will find the correct program for themselves. Stephen is highly respected from so many college coaches as he recommends not just top soccer players but also good characters that will fit a University academically also.

Stephen Murray does such a good job in the whole process of placing players to colleges/ universities in America . He knows the level of these teams, and as a coach over here, I see the amount of time and effort he puts into the whole process to making sure the student athletes have the opportunities to succeed in the right environments over here.

I went with Stephen on the Florida tour last march and it was the best experience of my life. It opened my eyes to what life is really like in the states and how much I wanted it to be my life. We played against some of the best teams in the country and saw some amazing sites. I would highly recommend SMUSA to anyone that is thinking of becoming a college athlete.
