Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala - USAC (reviews)

I loved it, despite of the political and internal challenges, I am absolutely grateful and convinced this was the best option I had to pursue my scientific career. The courses are tough, teachers are not super helpful but that makes you read more and do research on your own and you become self-taught, and if you put a lot of effort, then you pass the courses. The professors are good, not all of them have teaching experience as usual, not all of them are beyond great, but they know what they’re teaching. Campus life is so diverse and inclusive. Nothing is easy in this university, but the rewards are BIG! I would totally recommend it.

University San Carlos of Guatemala was a great experience, I got to keep developing as a psychologist while studying French and English.

It’s a place full of opportunities and the teacher are prepared to guide you through the experience

As a student at the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala (USAC), I have experienced both the challenges and rewards of attending this historic and prestigious institution. USAC holds a revered place in Guatemalan society as the oldest and largest university in the nation, dating back to 1676.

One of the biggest strengths of USAC is the excellent quality of education, especially in fields like medicine, law, engineering and the hard sciences. The professors are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, many being respected experts in their disciplines. I have gained a robust theoretical foundation as well as practical, applicable skills through labs, clinicals, etc. The rigorous curriculum ensures USAC graduates are well-prepared professionals.
