“ Un’esperienza indimenticabile” As an international studies and Italian major, I studied abroad in Milan, Italy at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in 2019 where I enrolled in an immersive program. If I were to describe my study abroad experience in one word, it would be life-changing. I made some of the best memories abroad and meet some amazing people. It was a time where I learned a lot about myself and gained a greater sense of independence. - Magdalena Perez, Graduate Study Abroad Assistant

The Sambódromo in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil hosts the Carnaval parade. One of my good friends (in the picture behind me) took me on one of the rehearsal days, where you can get a (free!) look at parts of the festivities. Brazil prides itself on the culture of jubilee, and I loved really internalizing that and always finding a way to celebrate! -Annie Kowalski, Graduate Assistant
