1.6 LdM-CAMNES COLLABORATION In Fall 2010 Istituto Lorenzo de’ Medici started a distinctive collaboration with the Center for Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern Studies (CAMNES). This Study Center has as its chief goal the joining of international research and education in archaeology and ancient studies as a way to discover our roots and understand our times. CAMNES activities include professional and interdisciplinary education, conferences, symposia, publications, exhibits, and public archaeology initiatives. As an example, CAMNES has recently organized, together with the University of Florence and the support of LdM, the 16th SOMA (Symposium on Mediterranean Archaeology) as well as an important Workshop on the Archaeology of Florence: “City and Territory”. This partnership will also edit and publish the proceedings of both these congresses. CAMNES, whose members are established and emerging archaeologists and academics, also develops archaeological research projects, in Italy as well as other countries (Turkey, Armenia and Jordan). The CAMNES scientific committee is formed by outstanding scholars and researchers who provide a comprehensive coverage of the various areas of interest of the Mediterranean and Near Eastern ancient past. CAMNES oversees the expanding departments of Archaeology and Classical Studies at all LdM sites, and has coordinated the development of new study programs and courses. Moreover, LdM together with CAMNES have developed two Certificate Programs in Archaeology and Ancient Studies. The first certificate, entitled ‘Hands-on Archaeology’, is held in Florence and focuses on the practical aspects of Etruscan archaeology and artifact restoration. The second one, entitled ‘Ancient Italy’, is held in Tuscania and concentrates on the art and history of Italy’s ancient cultures (Etruscan, Roman and Medieval periods). Both certificates comprehend the unique feature of a two-week archaeology field school in Tuscania. Please see point # 5.8. Website: www.camnes.org 22 LdM Academic Catalog 2013-2014
2. ADMISSIONS AND REGISTRATION PROCEDURES 2.1 ADMISSION AND COURSE SELECTION The completion of the registration process implies that the student understands all of LdM’s policies and regulations and agrees to abide by them. It is required that applicants be at least 18 years old, have completed at least one year of college by the start of the program, and have a minimum 2.80 cumulative GPA. LdM requires students to have upheld good disciplinary standing. Students whose first language is not English must provide proof of English proficiency in accordance with LdM’s specifications. All students must make sure they will receive credits from their home institution for courses taken at LdM, including any new courses resulting from placement test/level adjustments. A student’s application is considered complete when the student has submitted all the required materials: application form (signed and completed), transcript from current college/university, passport size photos, and paid all the required fees. If any of the student’s selected courses is unavailable (i.e., cancelled due to insufficient enrolment or full), the student will automatically be enrolled in their alternative course/section/program. Once LdM receives the original course registration form, the Registrar’s Office will process and confirm the course selection. Late applicants will be considered only if their chosen courses are still available. Students are required to take at least one Italian language course during the semester. Italian language is optional during the January Intersession and Summer Sessions. Non-beginning students will take a placement test onsite to confirm their level. The Italian language placement test consists of a written exam, featuring progressively difficult questions, followed by a brief interview to evaluate comprehension and speaking skills. Students are responsible for reviewing previous course materials in accordance with the prerequisite of the class they are registered in. Students requesting Intermediate or Advanced courses must check the course description and course schedule to make sure they meet all the prerequisites. Concurrent enrollment does not satisfy prerequisite requirements; the students must have completed the prerequisites before arrival at LdM. If students do not meet the prerequisites, they must change their course selection. A level test will be administered at the beginning of Intermediate/Advanced level Studio Art and Design courses to confirm the student’s level. Lab fees and course materials are not included in the tuition costs. All Studio Art classes require students to buy their own materials, which can be bought on-site. We recommend that students consult the relevant course syllabus for a general idea of what is required for each class, though some details may vary over time. The cost of materials depends on the type of course. Most Studio Art, Design, Cuisine and Wine Appreciation courses require a lab fee. In addition, several courses from different departments require that students pay for visits and field trips as noted in the relevant course syllabi. 2.2 ADD & DROP AND FINAL REGISTRATION Once at LdM students will not be allowed to change their program or location. Only one class can be changed after arrival depending on course availability. Students are required to contact their home institution to secure credit for added courses. Course changes are allowed only during the first week of classes for the Semester programs or during Orientation and Final Registration day for the Summer Sessions and January Intersession. After the Add & Drop period, students will be able to drop a course with a “W” on their transcripts within the first nine weeks of the Semester Programs, the first two weeks of classes for the Summer Sessions, and the first week of classes for January Intersession. After these dates and before the “W/F” deadline, students may drop a course with a “W/F” grade. LdM Academic Catalog 2013-2014 23
