USAC Sticker Design Contest
Calling all creatives, artists, and graphic designers — we want YOU to design USAC’s new stickers! We’re looking for 3-4 new sticker designs to distribute to students, alumni, USAC staff, and university partners around the world. The prize? International bragging rights and a batch of your stickers mailed to your door.
We want our stickers to reflect your unique study abroad experience. So, think, what does study abroad mean to you? What comes to mind when you think, “students beyond borders?” How can you demonstrate authentic cultural experiences through an image or your favorite travel quote?
