I had the time of my life!
March 01, 2026by: Joseph Butzke - United StatesProgram: USAC Czech Republic: Prague - Politics, Culture, & the Arts
The USAC staff in Prague were amazing and so helpful. Also, Prague itself was an experience of a lifetime and I want to go back as soon as I can. You are fully immersed in the city life and there are endless activities and exciting things to see.
An experience everyone should have!

I studied abroad in Prague for the second summer session during 2025, and it was an unforgettable experience. Prague is an absolutely gorgeous city and USAC gave me the chance to live in it for a period of time. The class I took (Architecture) took us to so many museums, churches, castles, and art galleries, most of which I probably wouldn’t have known about if not for the class. The professor, Milan, was so kind and knowledgeable, and so was every staff there (like Dasa and Jan.) If you decide to study in gorgeous Prague, you MUST do the Budapest/Vienna tour. It was a truly amazing trip and I couldn’t recommend it enough.
PRAGUE IS LIFE

I had an immersive experience in a foreign country. I found the staff members to be helpful and friendly. I think Prague is a place everyone should visit for a unique cultural shock. I miss it so much and will definitely visit again.

My inspiration to travel abroad was fueled by my longtime desire to travel outside of the country, as I had never been anywhere out of the U.S. previously. I spoke with peer advisors at a study abroad fair at my college, and after that, I knew I was going to be headed somewhere abroad in the near future. It became all I could think about, I just had to make the most difficult decision - where to go! My college had partnered with one program provider, CIEE, to offer 50 students a free passport, which I didn't hesitate to apply for. Fortunately, I was one of those lucky 50 students, so that also helped drive me to make my final decision to head overseas.
