Requirements
To obtain a sports scholarship for a college in the USA, one must meet various requirements. First and foremost, academic qualification is essential. Additionally, ideally, one should demonstrate outstanding performance in their sport. In addition to academic and athletic requirements, potential scholarship recipients must also be of good character. The ability to work as part of a team, self-leadership, and a commitment to the community and the college are important factors.

The fall semester begins in early August and primarily serves as preparation for the season. During this period, some swim meets take place.
From mid-December to mid-January, there are Christmas holidays. This provides the opportunity to come home and spend cozy days with family and friends.
The spring semester starts in mid-January and lasts until the end of March, depending on individual and team performance. Right after that, preparation for summer meetings begins, which can be held outside of the USA.
Summer break at most universities starts in early May and lasts until early August. If you're not attending any meetings, you have 3 months off and plenty of time for a visit to Europe.
