Giuliana Vasilevich

Iowa State University

I recently completed my first year at Iowa State University, majoring in Advertising with a minor in Event Management. 

Reflecting on my first year at Iowa State, I am instantly overjoyed and could not be more thankful. Iowa State has been one of my best decisions and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It has led me to great opportunities, friends, and memories that will last a lifetime. 

During my time at Iowa State, I joined a sorority and become a member of the Omega Delta chapter of Delta Delta Delta, where I currently serve as the Director of Administration. Through this experience, I have had the opportunity to support and raise funds for our Philanthropy St Jude’s Children's Research Hospital as well as support and raise funds for Special Olympics Iowa during our annual Greek Week. 

I am also excited to share that in the Spring of 2026, I will be headed to Italy for the Greenlee School of Journalism and Mass Communications study abroad program in Urbino, Italy. 

I could not be more appreciative for the opportunities and financial support the Scholarship from SADIA has given me.

Grazie
