Study Abroad in Italy
Location
Italy: Bergamo, Bologna, Catania and 15 other cities
Description
Language. Art. Architecture. History. Religion. Food. Fashion. Italy has so many things to offer. Like Rome, it will take much more than a day to discover everything, to immerse yourself with your host family, and to become a part of the unique culture that defines Italy.
Youth For Understanding USA's (YFU) high school study abroad program is an experience that will immerse you in the lives, languages, cultures, and communities of a real family in one of more than 40 countries around the globe. YFU is a home-stay experience where you live with a carefully selected host family who has agreed to open their home and their hearts to you---providing room, board, and a caring home. You'll gain a global family, make new friends, and even attend a new school on academic programs.
Students in Italy can study in one of four different education tracks: Liceo Scientifico, Liceo Classico, Liceo Liguistico or Istituto Tecnico e Commerciale. These high schools focus on subjects such as Sciences, the Classics, Languages, or Business.
Most placements for students can occur in the following counties in Italy: Lombardy, Lazio, Sardinia, Sicily, Marche, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna, and Veneto. While these counties include major cities such as Rome, Milan, Bologne, Pisa, etc., placement in the county could be anywhere, not necessarily in the cities themselves.
