Absolutely Amazing!!

The program as a whole was set up amazing, all of the professors were extremely helpful and knowledgeable! Couldn't speak more highly of my experience. Another great aspect of the program was the home stay. I became very close with my host mother, and she also helped advance my speaking abilities in italian!

Absolutely amazing experience

I had one of the best times in Siena as well as the program. I have previously participated in other study abroad programs, but to be honest none of them compare to the Dante Alighieri one in Siena. It was a life changing experience and I had an absolutely amazing experience. From the people to the school to the events to the city itself, everything was great. I had great host families and I met amazing people during my time there. The people at the Dante Alighieri school are also awesome people and you can tell how passionate they are about teaching people their language and culture. Would for sure recommend to other students looking for a great study abroad program.
