Live Studying Abroad!
July 08, 2026by: Alexander Bidwell - United StatesClass selection was good, particularly Art & Archaeology which I would consider a must. There's no city as good as Rome for learning about history given the plethora of ancient Roman sites and museums. Also, there was ample time for exploring Italy on my own.
AWSOMESAUCE
July 08, 2026by: Everardo Garcia Jr - AngolaStudying abroad in Italy is an absolute dream come true, offering an incredible mix of world-class education, deep historical immersion, and unforgettable weekend travels. It is the perfect destination if you want to balance your academic goals with a vibrant, slow-paced lifestyle full of incredible food, art, and culture.
Most Amazing Time
July 08, 2026by: Alexandra Lombardi - United StatesI had honestly the most fun ever here with my friends! I thoroughly enjoyed my classes, learning about the culture, exploring Italy and Europe! It was life changing and I would highly recommend to everyone!
So much fun!
July 08, 2026by: Elliot Snyder - United StatesI had a really great time with my experience in Rome! I love my roommates and we’ve become really great friends. I’ve also had a great time exploring Rome and immersing myself in the culture while also being able to do weekend travel.
Endless Immersion
July 08, 2026by: Simon Hnin - United StatesI felt like I lived in Rome for so long and got immersed to fast, it felt like I had lived here forever. This got me missing home, but that’s not a bad thing. I got enough non-academic days that it allowed me to explore other part of Italy and Europe too.
A new roman empire
July 03, 2025by: Jacob Dokho - United StatesI had a great time studying abroad in rome with cea capa. Right from the start, I found a strong sense of community cultivated through program-wide events and orientation. Through sponsored trips I even got to see other parts of italy.

December 11, 2024by: Emily Ravalli - United StatesThis was a great experience! They offered so many fun things to help us experience Italy! The living situation was great and we had an Italian roommate that lived with us! I loved CEA and I wish I never had to leave
Running In Rome
July 04, 2024by: Christopher Haymond - United StatesThe area around the apartment is nice and has many beautiful historic areas scattered about, in which running by then became a great routine every day. Would love to stay longer and check out more of prati

July 04, 2024by: Ryan Ettner - United StatesGood Study Abroad program - academics and atmosphere were good, the living situation was good as well and I had a great time! CEA knows what they are doing and were helpful with both pre-departure and post arrival plans.
Much more than I was expecting
July 04, 2024by: Nicholas Xavier Gaston - United StatesHad a great time traveling and meeting people. Classes were not too difficult but not too lax. Had a great time collaborating with my classmates and meeting my teachers. I recommend this program to anybody
i met amazing people
July 04, 2024by: Piper Newman - United Statesi has a great time but my engineering professor was average. he made the class way more challenging than needed but i survived and passed the class. there was very poor communication on what the exams.
Amazing nature!
July 04, 2024by: Kyle Keipper - United StatesHad a great time traveling Italy Greece and Swizterland. Visited Athens, Greece, and Zermatt, Switzerland in back to back weekends, the beaches and mountains were very beautiful!!! I can’t wait to revisit the Matterhorn and hopefully climb it.
Good time
July 04, 2024by: Garrett SauterAwesome it was so much. i had a really great time with the friends that i met here and we got to travel a lot as well as become immersed in the culture of rome and italy. i would certainly recommend this to my friends and wish i could do it again!
Summer in Rome!
February 16, 2024by: Alison Haskell - United StatesMy Summer in Rome was an unforgettable experience that I can't stop recommending to everyone! I absolutely loved the opportunity to live in the city and learn about its history at the same time. Being immersed in the Roman Empire while hearing its stories was one of my favorite parts. Italy overall has so much to offer, and with the trains and metro, Rome makes it easy to explore and travel around its different regions to get the full experience from its beautiful beaches to Tuscan country. CEA CAPA Staff was phenomenal throughout and was definitely one of the things I loved most about this trip. The staff always went above and beyond to make sure their students were supported and having the best experience possible. Pros - CEA CAPA Staff - Excursions to other cities in Italy - Rich historical presence in the city Cons - Public transport in Italy outside of Rome can be tricky, plan accordingly! - Very touristy area - Very hot during the summer (and no A/C haha)

Good fun
December 06, 2023by: Brian Friedman - United StatesGoing around Rome and learning with CEA was a joy. So much good fun and learned a lot with great teachers and friends. Everyone was very supportive and gave us the time of our lives. Hope this review helps u decide on CEA in rome.
I had a good time
December 06, 2023by: Thurman Hou - United StatesExcellent I really liked this lrogram, I had a great time and I would like to do it again if given the opportunity. If I had to improve my experience I would provide students with a couple more activities, as the ones provided we’re fun
Great experience!
July 05, 2023by: Lauren MoestaI had a great time! All the academic classes were extremely fun and insightful. I really enjoyed the included trips and cooking classes. The only issue we had was bed bugs in one of the beds right when we got here. Besides that I would recommend this program to future students.
