Belong: The Trojan Family
For many of us, the word “family” is more than simply a matter of blood and heritage. At USC, you will discover a whole new meaning for the word. We are dreamers and realists, scholars and students, artists and athletes, engineers and entrepreneurs, leaders and colleagues. We are a tightly connected family with members found in every country and continent. We are students for now and Trojans for life.
Connections for Life
If you value the free and open exchange of ideas and genuinely respect cultural differences, you will discover kindred spirits at USC. You will connect with those who share your interests, experiences and passions and with those who appreciate and need your talents in all manner of things, from academics to political action, athletics to religion. You will discover lasting friendships among the thousands of USC faculty, academic advisors, staff and alumni. Some of these individuals will become mentors — guides who will shape your entire life.
Whatever your goals, whatever your interests, whatever your aptitudes or personal style, the Trojan Family will be there with you, lifelong and worldwide.
Over 437,000 strong, the Trojan Family represents one of your most valuable resources and assets. USC alumni are leaders in business, the arts, the sciences, public service and sports. They are world-famous architects, inventors, actors and writers.
