Cuba has long been closed-off to much of the world due to its governmental administration, but has recently started to open it’s doors for those outside of Cuba to visit, see and learn about their people and culture. With influences from the aboriginal people, Spanish, to African and even American cultures, Havana, Cuba, has cultivated a colorful and diverse culture of it’s own.
We’ve long awaited the chance to see first-hand what Cuba has to offer our students, and we’re excited to let you know it’s now available as a new study abroad option! –USAC
