Perspectives from Sophomore, Alex Rintoul

Alex Rintoul shares his perspectives as he starts his Sophomore year at Lynchburg

Alex Rintoul from Warwickshire, UK worked with Col-Ten to secure his place at the University of Lynchburg in Virginia. We're always pleased to hear from our Col-Ten Crew, and we thought this update from Alex should be shared with all our current and future Col-Ten clients. Thanks Alex and keep up the good work!

"Back in Virginia for my Sophomore year at the University of Lynchburg. For those who don’t know that’s 2nd year! Thoroughly enjoying my adventure here, playing tennis most days under blue skies, on the back of last year being the most successful Tennis year in 22 years for the Uni in the ODACS regional competition. I’ve found my doubles game has really progressed now I have been playing as the lead pair for the team, and the view from Warwick Boat Club after a summer back home is my game is more consistent than it used to be.

"Academically I have been able to explore more options as an undergraduate than I could in the UK. Under the credit system, I have been able to switch my major to Business Studies starting this year. The system encourages this approach and in general I find the flexibility suits me. Last year I also joined a fraternity, PKT. Contrary to the common view from the UK, the setup is designed to encourage friendship, support and mentorship and is countrywide not just specific to each University. Of course the social side is part of that too!

"I have made some great friendships and was pleased to have visitors to the UK last Christmas to stay. I can’t recommend looking into tennis scholarships enough! Any number of budget options are available from fully funded Div 1 to partially funded Div 3, which is comparable to the cost of a degree course at a UK university. Thanks to Paul and Col-Ten for helping me get to where I am today. It was fantastic to see all my Warwick friends over the summer, but given the unique experience I am having I’m glad to be back in sunny Lynchburg."
