“I am Giulia Grasso, also known to many as simply GG! I am from Italy and here at Queens I studied Exercise and Sport Science as a Bachelor and as Minors in Health Science and Sport Management. I graduated in Spring 2023 and one thing I was worried about before coming to the Us was that I would not know how to adapt to the new lifestyle (completely different from my home country) and that it would be a big culture shock for me; eventually I realized that with time and also thanks to the immense welcome I had here, I got used to my new routine in the US!”

“Studying in the US takes a lot of courage and a good mindset. Being far from family can be challenging but with the support from my advisors, coaches, teammates, and classmates it is a lot easier to overcome the fear of the “unknown”. Job opportunities, friendship, leadership, networking opportunities, and personal growth, are one of the main characteristics I am able to get through, with, and within the Queens family.”

“Queens University of Charlotte, although a small school in a big city, is home to hundreds of international students. International students here are not only made to feel at home but are encouraged to share their culture and learn from one another. I have learnt so much from this university not only academically but interpersonally from my peers that influences the way I can view and take on the world. Queens is a perfect place to network and make friendships with people from all areas of the globe.”
