Personal recommendation
If you are interested in meeting many other Americans while abroad, attending a school that is not very academically challenging or expensive in order to spend more time and money getting to know your Italian environment and culture, then this school is a good choice. Also, the school does have a pretty strong fine arts program, with many well-trained teachers. This is really the school's strong suit, as opposed to the liberal arts studies they also offer.

Definitely give it a try if you are interested in visual art but the other areas are lacking and I am sure there are more schools with better qualifications.

The University is great! Great courses and profs. But, it's spread out between like 3 small buildings with a few rooms and there is no campus. Also, it is hard to get stuff done b/c administration is not really helpful and very bureacratic.

The academics, overall, were not as challenging as my home university, however, I had a few instructors who were incredible. I definitely had a better experience, academically, my second semester because I knew who to take, etc.

ABOUT
Located in the heart of Florence, the Lorenzo de' Medici school has been providing Italian language and cultural instruction to foreign students since 1972. With 24 years of experience, the Institute has perfected a method of teaching Italian not only to students from all over the world, but also to those whose professions require a special knowledge of Italian.
The School is a member of FEDE (Federation of European Schools ) and was one of the first schools to become a member of the ASILS (Association of Schools for Italian as a Second Language).
