Hola! My name is Coco and I studied abroad in Madrid, Spain in the fall 2025 semester at ! My major is psychology with a minor in human development and family science. On campus, I'm involved in the ASIA organization, Psychology club, and Satellite Facilities. In my free time, I enjoy reading, baking, and watching tv shows.

I was awarded a Gilman Scholarship () and chose Madrid because I wanted to improve my Spanish skills and immerse myself in the local culture. My favorite memories are going on walks in El Retiro Park and going to the flea market on Sundays.

The Gilman Scholarship impacted my experience abroad by helping alleviate some of the financial burden, which allowed me to be more present and fully enjoy my time in Madrid. It also provided helpful resources throughout the program, and I appreciated being able to connect with others in the Gilman network. I definitely encourage you to apply for the Gilman Scholarship if you’re considering studying abroad. It’s a great opportunity, and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

MARK YOUR CALENDAR!

Students at the Syracuse Strasbourg Center recently met with the European Ombudsman Teresa Anjinho, who shared insights into her professional path and experiences as an ombudswoman. The event was part of the center’s European politics speaker series held throughout the month of February.

“As a student with an interest in diplomacy, I found her speech to be very inspiring, and I know the other students in the room found her just as moving,” says international relations student Mariana Luz ’27. “I left her speech feeling a sense of relief and have a new perspective on what’s to come in the future!”
