Florence: Arts, Humanities, & Culture

Ian Darlington From the professors to the food, everything about this program was excellent. The professors know the city and culture well, having lived there for many years. In addition to being extremely helpful and organized, they adjust expectations per individual based on previous academic exposure to certain topics and by giving students ample opportunities to both learn in class and explore the city/country on their own. Staying with a host family may seem a little intimidating, but after meeting them and getting settled in, they were a fantastic resource for both culture and language; I am still in contact with mine. Anyone who loves art, wants to learn Italian, or longs to live in Italy, this is the program for you!
