The USM campus is centrally located in Santa Monica, California in close proximity to the Pacific Ocean, parks, hotels, restaurants, shopping areas, international and local airports, and public transportation. Each year, we welcome students from around the world to USM’s Programs and Workshops. Students have either relocated or traveled from locations such as England, Australia, France, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Mexico, South America, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates to attend the University. Distance need not be a barrier to participating.
