Additional Information

Rome’s beauty quickly overtakes all who enter its ancient walls. A walk through even the most commonplace quarters of the city yields encounters with innumerable monuments and buildings that still stand imposingly just as they have for over 2,000 years! 

Also, Rome is the perfect base from which to explore the rest of Europe. AUR does not schedule classes on Friday, giving our students a three-day window to visit other cities within Europe; London, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Paris are all within a three-hour flight distance.

AUR is home to a highly diverse student body representing over 60 countries on campus. 28 native languages are spoken among our faculty and students, although all programs are conducted in English.
Reflecting this eclectic campus, our professors respect and draw from different points of view, ideas, and real-world experiences.

AUR prepares you to live and work across cultures as skilled and knowledgeable citizens of an interconnected and ever-changing world through its practical academic majors, opportunities for learning through travel and internships, and its multi-cultural student body, faculty, and staff.
