Live, Learn, Belong

College is a time to explore, to test, to challenge and to define who you are and who you would like to become. At USC you will find different perspectives, experience new cultures, and ultimately uncover a few things about yourself along the way.

Welcome Home

Your undergraduate years at USC may be your first experience living away from home, or your first time in a new city—possibly even in a new country. You will be in an unfamiliar environment, keeping a different schedule and making new friends. This new lifestyle will be challenging, but it will also be memorable and exciting.
