Ensure long-term success beyond the game.

Syracuse University and the National Women’s Soccer League have formed a partnership that will enable Syracuse University’s nationally ranked online degree and certificate programs in schools and colleges like the College of Professional Studies, the Whitman School of Management, the Newhouse School of Public Communications, and the new Falk College of Sport to provide members of the NWSL community access to online degrees, certificates, and credentials.

Under this agreement, the University will provide a comprehensive suite of educational programs designed to support the professional development of current NWSL players, former players within five years of active playing, current full-time NWSL employees as well as each of their respective clubs’ employees, and immediate family members who are legal dependents of each of the above.

The College of Professional Studies designs, develops, and offers many nationally ranked 100% online degree programs. In areas like business and project management, these programs are intentionally designed to equip modern learners with the knowledge and skills needed to advance their careers or successfully pursue new ones. The College also provides a variety of industry-proven, non-credit professional development and executive education opportunities.  Non-native English speakers will have access to an online pre-academic English program to prepare for success in their selected programs, courses, and workshops.
