Amazing Abroad Experience!
April 18, 2025by: Taylor Rymer - United StatesProgram: USAC Scotland: Stirling - Undergraduate CoursesI absolutely loved going abroad this past summer in Stirling, Scotland with USAC. They were incredibly helpful, communicative, and the program is super affordable! I would absolutely recommended this program to anyone. They organized lots of activities around and on-campus. The dorms are super nice, and I loved the courses I took while there. Overall, the entire program was amazing, and I wish I could go back!
Amazing Experience
April 17, 2025by: Preston Messino - United StatesProgram: USAC Korea: Seoul - Korean & East Asian Studies at YonseiI had the most fun time of my life. I was lucky enough to find a good friend group early on, so i didnt partake in a lot of planned events by the school/usac except for the field trips and activities i signed up for prior. Explore the city, drink 7/11 soju on the sidewalks instead of in bars/restaurants to save money, but be safe. Force yourself to be extroverted and reach out to make friends as early as possible. 5 weekends goes by faster than you could imagine.
Cuba, For Real
April 17, 2025by: Elizabeth Gomez - United StatesProgram: USAC Cuba: La Habana - Cuban History, Society, & PoliticsThank you to University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) for this opportunity to have neurosurgeon Dr. Abel and neuroanesthesiologist Dr. Armando as my professors for such a unique experience. With students from all over the US, I was able to visit: - a polyclinic - a geriatric care home - a maternity care home - a family doctor clinic - a pharmacy - one of the original science academies of Cuba (now a museum) - so many other places! Having been able to interact with a variety clients, patients, and health care professionals has made this one of the most fruitful classes l've ever taken.

When I was younger my family and I moved a lot, however I had never been outside the U.S. When I was getting ready to apply for colleges, my high school had provided information on studying abroad which sparked my interest, so when choosing a college I made sure my school had a study abroad program. I was always interested in learning about new cultures and different languages, so studying abroad to me always seemed like a great way to learn about both and immerse yourself in a foreign country.
