I learned self reliance, adaptability, and I am very very happy with my improvement in Italian - Middlebury College View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile! For starters I learned Italian. I also learned to make human connections when conditions for sociability are imperfect (language and timing), I learned to live almost entirely independently and manage my budget and time. - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Past Review A Year In Rome
I gained a deeper understanding of Italy and needless to say my Italian improved a lot - Barnard College View Entire Review
I learnt to cook and most of all I feel very confident in my Italian. - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I did an internship with UNESCO and learned how to speak Italian in a professional working environment. - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I realized that it is really hard to build a friendship with Italians, you need to invest into your interactions - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about the culture, the independent life and about myself. Which I think as a student they are phases that are very important and shape one's transit to adulthood. I gained a larger scope of art history knowledge and yes it was definitely worthwhile. - Middlebury College View Entire Review

About

Designed for students at an advanced level of Italian, the School in Italy provides students the opportunity to enroll directly into an Italian university, taking courses in disciplines ranging from Renaissance literature to biology.

Since its founding in 753 B.C., Rome has been a center of culture, politics, religion, trade, and history. With a population of 2.7 million, Rome is a city that has learned to live in modernity while conserving its ancient history and architecture. Now a major European and international capital with several institutions of higher learning, students have the opportunity to study along with their Italian peers in a city with endless opportunities for learning and living.

Middlebury's host institution, the La Sapienza- Università di Roma, was founded in 1303 and enrolls approximately 145,000 students. Students take courses across several disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, and the arts.
