Description: ASA offers undergraduate students the opportunity to study in Rome for a semester, academic year, or summer at The Umbra Institute's Pantheon Center. The Pantheon Center offers a general studies program designed to meet the needs of a diverse group of students from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines. At the core of the academic program is the desire to maximize the opportunities for exploration and study in the greater city of Rome. Each semester students are offered a selection of courses that put Rome at the forefront, and on-site learning plays a fundamental part in the curriculum.

Highlights: You've no doubt heard the saying, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Well, at ASA, we firmly believe it. We encourage our students to engage in the day-to-day life of Rome as much as possible to truly get a taste of the Italian existence.

As a student at the Pantheon Center, the city of Rome will be your campus. There's a myriad of museums to visit, concerts to attend, and monuments to see. There's the world-renowned Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, an untold number of medieval churches concealing artistic masterpieces, and the quaint charm of open-air markets. Of course you can't forget all the sites you've seen a million times in history books: the Coliseum, Roman Forum, Sistine Chapel, Vittorio Emanuele monument, St. Peter's Cathedral, and the Pantheon itself are all sure to take your breath away. But you'll also be encouraged to wander off the beaten track and experience all sides of Rome, getting to truly study, know, and appreciate the city as more than just a tourist.
