While going abroad seemed very daunting the staff at USAC made my trip so smooth. I knew I could reach out to anyone at anytime and they would do their best to help me out. Everyone was super welcoming and provided friendly faces in a foreign country. I would do that semester over 100 times because of how amazing it was

My time in Reggio Emilia was genuinely the best. The apartment living forced me to really immerse myself in the language and culture. The friends I gained made the experience for me. We still talk because we just got that close through the program. The tight-knit structure of USAC was really everything I wanted and more.
