Personal recommendation
If u know Italian, have a car and already know someone at Tor Vergata then the university might just be great, otherwise choose a country where student activities are a startingpoint for social life!

Final comments
Tor Veragata - Try to find an appartment close to the University since it is not close to Romes center, and the public traffic is not the best. Try to contact your mentor way before u leave for Italy so that u can have him/her to organize half of the things, so that when you arrive you have time to socialize and study!
