Hi there! It's fantastic that you're passionate about soccer and looking to continue playing in college. There are numerous universities with strong soccer programs in both the NCAA Division I and Division III levels. Here are a few notable ones:

1. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) - Known for their consistently strong women's team, with multiple national championships under their belt. The men's team is also highly competitive.

2. Stanford University - Both the men's and women's teams have won NCAA championships and are consistently ranked high in national rankings.

3. Indiana University Bloomington - The men's soccer team is well-regarded and has several championships to their name.

4. University of Virginia - Both the men's and women's programs have seen success in the NCAA tournament, with multiple championships for both teams.

5. UCLA - Steadily competitive men's and women's programs. The women's team has had recent success in the NCAA tournament while the men's team has a long history of strong performance.

These are just a few examples that combine excellent soccer programs with strong academics, but there are many other excellent programs out there. It's important to consider other factors in your college search as well, like location, size, and overall academic fit. Don't hesitate to reach out to the coaches, attend showcases, or participate in college ID camps to get a better sense of the soccer programs at different universities and gauge where you would fit in competitively.

Best of luck in your search, and I hope you find a great soccer and academic fit!
