I checked their website to search for scholarships and find answers to some frequently asked questions.

Gracia Duron Honduras

In the chaotic search of my dream university StudyUSA.com was the first really informative website I came across. I was provided with every piece of information I asked for and even more. Due to the well organized lists of colleges and accessible data about the set of requirements, tuition rates and program schedules it became easy to get oriented which university was the best choice for me. What is more, Student Relationship Manager Anna Castillo got in contact with me as soon as I signed up for StudyUSA.com and she regularly inquired about my position. Thanks to the cooperation with StudyUSA.com and it's professional team the challenging search of university became manageable and easily done.
