You'll study at Florence University of the Arts (FUA) alongside other study abroad students just as excited to experience Italy as you are. Discover the city's hidden gems through "Florentine Fridays" (most Fridays are class-free!) that take you on morning jaunts to places like markets, museums, art galleries, churches, and beautiful gardens. Enjoy exceptional support through both FUA and CIS Abroad, ensuring you're comfortable and making the absolute most of your time in Florence. Choose from dozens of courses taught in English in subject areas including the arts, business, communication, education, health, humanities, math, and social sciences, as well as Italian language and culture. There are plenty of reasons why Florence is a top study abroad destination and this program so highly regarded!
