Why study in Rome instead of the USA?
Reclaim your education.
Study in a place where open minds, not loud voices, set the tone.
While U.S. campuses become ideological battlegrounds, there’s a quiet revolution happening as students in search of a real education vote with their feet. At The American University of Rome, a liberal arts education is still about questioning boldly, thinking freely, and engaging respectfully.
You don’t need to pick a side here, you just need a curious, open mind and a belief in the value of dialogue.
Culture - without the Culture Wars! Education without the echo chamber.

Just like top US universities, AUR offers a fully English-speaking academic environment, with small, discussion-based classes led by international faculty.
