    Returning Students

    You can globalize your academics while still on campus! We partner with Center for Integrative and Experiential Learning (CIEL) to offer globally focused courses and internationally focused advising, further enhancing global experiences for those students who have and have not studied abroad.

    GLD: Global Learning Pathway

    Graduation with Leadership Distinction (GLD) is a formal distinction that honors the broader scope of your achievements and sets you apart in ways worthy of recognition by others (e.g., potential employers, graduate schools). The Global Learning Pathway of GLD is one of five possible pathways towards receiving GLD and was developed by us and CIEL to help you make meaningful connections between learning within the classroom and your experiences from studying abroad.

    Returnee Resources

    Welcome home! Congratulations on completing a successful term abroad. We in the Education Abroad Office hope that your experience abroad was full of discovery, adventure, and learning. We’re glad to have you back at USC, where you can continue to pursue your international education with any number of our interactive ways to stay involved.

    Education Abroad Alumni Network

    The Alumni Network is a great way to connect you with other study abroad alumni on campus. By joining the organization, you will have the opportunity to build lasting relationships within the USC community, share your journey with prospective students, and continue your own cultural exploration. Whether you're looking to give back, stay engaged, or expand your global perspective, the Alumni Network is your gateway to staying connected and making a difference.
