Past Traveler Opinions

 

Thanks, you know you have really really quelled many of our concerns as parents. Thanks for all the guidance.
- Parent of an incoming 2015 student

It’s such a relief knowing that you will not be alone upon arrival at the airport. Thanks a million!
- Class of 2015 Student

Thank you very much for the UVaExpress. It was very amazing and helped me as well as other student to be familiar with C-Ville.
- Class of 2015 Student

UVaExpress' is just fantastic, especially if you've flown from across the world, you're tired and hungry, and just want a smiling face to welcome you into a completely new environment.
- Student 2013, UVaExpress 2009

UVaExpress was very helpful because it was my first time traveling to the United States. I was by myself (without my parents) and I was still confused about the transportation system. UVaExpress is not only cost - effective, but also the most convenient and safe way to reach the university. My parents felt at ease sending me abroad because of the service UVaExpress provided.
- Amanda Suardana 2012, UVaExpress 2008

After traveling literally halfway across the world on a 24-hour plane ride, there is nothing better than a heart-warming welcome from the volunteers of UVaExpress. It was the first time I ever stepped into the United States; thanks for easing my anxiety and for making sure that I arrive safely in U.Va.
- Karissa Nanetta 2012, UVaExpress 2008

They are the best guides at U.Va. They offer you an easy, free trip to the beautiful Academic Village of Mr. Jefferson."
- George Yu Wu, 2012 UVaExpress 2008

I was traveling alone and my parents were happy to know that I would be greeted at the airport. I think it is a very useful program especially for students traveling alone.
- Student 2012, UVaExpress 2008

You guys were awesome!
