Our UChicago Graham school trip included a few fantastic days in Naples, Pompeii, and Herculaneum with our guide Felicia D’Amora who combined impressive historical knowledge of Pompeii with the personal passion for her ancient hometown. We all really appreciated both her intense dedication and her insights. (And she helped us find our way to some unbelievable meals at restaurants perched over the ruins, in the vineyard of a local winery, and in a beautiful 18th century building in the “modern” part of Pompeii.) Many thanks to her for everything!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼#romeinstituteofliberalarts #uchicagograhamschool #tourpompei_felix #boscodemediciwinery #mercatopompeiano

With the University of Chicago Graham School in Rome and Tivoli. Fantastic community of thoughtful people, awake to everything and ready for Rome in the deep sense, having already read and discussed a lot of ancient texts together for many years. We went by Caesar’s temple on the idea of March and the Pantheon at noon on equinox (but it was cloudy 😢), and of course some great meals. #romeinstituteoiberalarts #grahamschool #uchicago #basicprogram

Beautiful day at the forum today, looking around in advance of a visit we will do there with the University of Chicago Graham School. Many new spaces have been opened up to the public this year. The forum is a great historical point of reference, but is beautiful because of the way it activates the imagination. #romeinstituteofliberalarts #grahamschool #uchicago

Close to the end of our trip here, we did a Tintoretto lecture and went to Scuola San Rocco and then stopped by Basilica dei Frari since we were in the neighborhood. Just these two places today were so overwhelming. Not ready to leave. #romeinstututeofliberalarts #smc @smcjanterm

Admissions

Admission requirements, application procedures, deadlines, tuition, financial aid, and more.

Undergraduate Courses

Discussion based classes on philosophy, literature, and history are designed together with excursions led by art historians. RILA classes will go on a number of excursions each week. At least one excursion will take us outside of Rome…

Student life

Small practical details can make the difference during your time in Rome. We have thought about them all. Getting informed about them will help you plan ahead.

Locations


Students will be accommodated in a student house located in a quaint and trendy residential neighborhood right next to the historic center, making possible daily exploration of all the historic areas of Rome. Classrooms are at walking distance from students' housing.
