Rome

Italy

You are here

Home | Italy | Rome

When you study abroad in Rome, you'll be enveloped in the Roman past—the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, St. Peter’s Basilica—while enjoying all of the modern-day cultural jewels that the Eternal City has to offer.

 With some of the best architectural and artistic riches in Italy, Rome celebrates more than 2,500 years of history. Every day is a new adventure with so many bustling markets, winding streets, and, of course, gelato shops to explore when you study in Rome.

Do you like the idea of passing through an ancient Roman plaza on your way to class and maybe stopping for a fresh cappuccino along the way? Don’t wait any longer to study abroad in Rome. Indulge in Rome’s splendor—and did we mention the pasta?—as soon as possible with one of our Rome study abroad or internship programs!

After all, there’s no place like Rome.

Rome's Top Five

Discover the Ins and Outs of World-Famous Landmarks

The Pantheon, Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Vatican…the list of historic sites in Rome is endless. Our programs take you beyond the tourist visits and inside the cultural and historic significance of these landmarks.

Watch Roma Game

Soccer is more than a sport in Italy. Soak in the passion and pride at an A.S. Roma game in the Stadio Olimpico.

Shop at Local Farmer's Market

Spend the morning picking up produce, cured meats, freshly baked bread, and Rome’s famous mozzarella di bufala. Pro tip: Make it a picnic with your local friends and head to a park or piazza to enjoy!

Take in a Panoramic View of the City

While founded on seven hills, Rome is actually surrounded by 10. Take your pick and climb to the top for the best views of the city.

Take a Cooking Class

There’s no denying the mouthwatering food of Rome. Partake in the Center-sponsored cooking class, where you’ll learn the techniques and traditions of Roman cooking first-hand.

$6+ Million in Scholarships & Aid

Memories of Rome

Post by Dominick Cura

I knew my time studying abroad was going to go by fast, but no one told me it was going to go by this fast!

In all honesty, I really am grateful though to have been in Rome, studying and exploring the city and the country even if just for a short time. There are a lot of good memories I have from my time there, but I am sure I will have to return soon for some new memories.

I definitely packed a lot into my time in Rome. Not only was I able to explore around the city everyday as a local, but I got to explore around Italy as well. I celebrated Carnevale with my friends, explored the cliffside villages of Nemi and Castel Gandolfo and ate more pizza than I ever needed in Naples.

Having been back in the States for several weeks now, I want to share my experiences in Rome, how the last couple of weeks unfolded before coming home and how through all of this, how grateful I am for everything, so watch below to see more!

A Short but Sweet Time in Rome

Post by Dominick Cura

This certainly wasn't how I expected my semester abroad to end. It's surreal how we saw the situation of the coronavirus evolve in Italy right as we were in the country. Although I am glad to be home now with my family, there is so much I miss from my time in Rome. I will cherish the memories of the places, the people and the food of Rome. There was never a dull moment in the city.

Rome will surely continue to have a special place in my heart, and it is no doubt a very unique and beautiful city. While I was in Rome, I tried my best to explore a little more of the city every day. Whether it was a run along the Tiber River, an evening aperitivo or getting lost in Prati, I never took Rome for granted.

I may have explored a lot of the city, but throughout my month-long exploration of Rome, I still feel as though there are more secrets to discover in Rome. It would take a lifetime to see everything the city has to offer. The ancient, immense history of the city reveals itself in all the corners of the city.

I am extremely thankful for the opportunity to call Rome home for a short while, and I know I will return one day.
