<strong>Program</strong> Schedule<br />
Instruction for each course (designated<br />
A & B) will be spread over 21 two-hour<br />
morning sessions for a total <strong>of</strong> 42<br />
hours <strong>of</strong> instruction including the final<br />
examination. Scheduling <strong>of</strong> these classes<br />
will be arranged to accommodate<br />
occasional formal guided morning<br />
tours into Rome and environs, and<br />
to provide opportunity for individual<br />
student excursions when not in class.<br />
One extended tour is planned – (four<br />
days) to Assisi, Subiaco and Florence.<br />
Other day trips will be made to the<br />
Castelli Romani, Anzio, Fossanova and<br />
Monte Cassino. Costs for this travel are<br />
included in the program cost. Students will also be given the opportunity to<br />
travel independently for four days.<br />
Frequently Asked Questions<br />
Can I get financial aid for the summer program?<br />
Traditional financial aid applies to two terms in a year. Hence for the Rome<br />
Summer program, the only option for students would be to divide the loans<br />
they already qualify for over three semesters instead <strong>of</strong> two (fall and spring).<br />
This would mean the student would receive 33% <strong>of</strong> their loan in fall, spring<br />
and summer instead <strong>of</strong> 50% in the fall and 50% in the spring. Prorating the<br />
loans out over three semesters instead <strong>of</strong> two would mean that financial aid<br />
would need to know in advance (before the loans are paid) that the student is<br />
going to Rome in the summer so they can award the loans correctly. Currently<br />
no grants or scholarships are <strong>of</strong>fered for the Summer. Students may apply for<br />
a PLUS loan for the summer if the Financial Aid Office has a FAFSA on file.<br />
What do I need to know about overseas flights?<br />
Students will arrange their own transportation to the program. They are<br />
welcome to work with our travel agents, TravelLeaders or STA. Students<br />
whose planes actually arrive (vs. are scheduled to arrive) at the Fiumicino<br />
Airport in Rome by 9:30 a.m. on Monday, May 27 may take the group bus. All<br />
others including those whose flights are delayed are responsible for getting<br />
themselves to campus. Students arriving in Rome on May 26 must make their<br />
own accommodations for the night <strong>of</strong> May 26 and get themselves to campus<br />
May 27. Directions to campus and contact information for cab service will be<br />
provided. The campus arrival window is 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 27.
