Membership for Spring 2019 IS NOW OPEN. Join us!
The Trojan Real Estate Association (TREA) is a forum for learning about the real estate industry and making connections with professionals. TREA membership is open to undergraduate students with a professional interest in real estate from across the USC campus. TREA holds a number of programs throughout the school year, including alumni speaker panels and networking events. The Lusk Center works very closely with the real estate community to promote USC students. In order to ensure that students are able to take full advantage of these opportunities and to meet important deadlines, TREA enrollment period will close on: February 1, 2019.
