Talk to me about: All things study abroad! Going to USC Madrid was such an unforgettable experience, and I’m more than happy to chat about anything– whether it be food, classes, homestays, or all else. I’m also a Spanish major and took all of my classes at USC Madrid (none at Carlos III), so I’m happy to answer any questions related to that.
Advice: The day before the deadline, I almost dropped out of the program. I was really nervous about going to a new country and leaving behind the people and place that I really enjoy. Nonetheless, I am extremely grateful I chose to stick with it. If you are on the fence about studying abroad, I would say to trust your gut. You are not moving there permanently– rather it’s 4 months to try something new. It’s an incredible experience, and you’ll be wishing it was longer once May comes.
