Overall
Personal recommendation
I was extremely happy with this university. They were extremely helpful, and made the experience more enjoyable. All of the teachers were able to speak the both Italy and English fluently, and they seemed to be as excited to have us, as we were to be there.

I recommend Loyola Unversity Rome Center because the location is perfect to see the beautiful city of Rome. The people of Italy are friendly and easy going. The whole experience will blow you away.

Course recommendations
I felt language courses in the language of the host country were extremely helpful. It was easier to pick up on speech patterns, dialects, etc. when surrounded by it daily. The other course I enjoyed was the history course. Because Rome is a city rich with culture, history, and art it was amazing to see what I was learning about first hand.

Personal comments
More language classes focusing on interaction with people in the actual city/country instead of what is taught strictly in the classroom setting.
Not really. They do recommend learning the language a bit before arriving to the Rome Campus. I actually agree with that because it gives the experience a totally different touch because then the student can fit into the culture without many problems, even though the Romans were nice enough to learn english and prefered to speak english.

If resources were available easier, then projects and essays won't be so difficult to research for.
