Waldorf University and Soccer Universities have partnered to provide a path for aspiring professional athletes to access high quality higher education while working towards a professional soccer career in the US or overseas. 

Soccer Universities students interested in pursing their education with Waldorf University can select any one of our degrees to pursue while going through the Soccer Universities coaching program. This partnership will better allow Soccer Universities students the flexibility they need out of their academic program so you can achieve your goals on the field and in the classroom. 

Waldorf University online terms are 8 weeks long and there are no set class times. After you apply, our team will evaluate any previously earned college credits or certifications that could be applied towards your program, then we'll get you enrolled for classes. We guarantee to accept the maximum amount of transfer credit possible. 

All Soccer Universities students are eligible to receive 10% off Waldorf tuition costs and gain access to our Learning Partner scholarship awarded six times per year.  

Next Steps:

  1. Apply for admission to Waldorf University. You'll complete our easy application, then log into your prospect portal where you'll upload a color photo of your ID and start the transcript request process.
  2. We'll complete a full evaluation of your transcripts with a guarantee to accept the maximum number of credits possible towards your chosen program. While our formal evaluation is in process, you'll be admitted on a contingent basis so you can go ahead and get enrolled in classes!
