August 19, 2025by: Adriana Van Rossum - United StatesProgram: USAC Italy: Reggio Emilia-Education, Communication & HealthWhile going abroad seemed very daunting the staff at USAC made my trip so smooth.

August 01, 2025by: Madelyn Yaghi - United StatesProgram: USAC Italy: Reggio Emilia-Education, Communication & HealthMy time in Reggio Emilia was genuinely the best.
