Make Rome your home! 

In hopes that the COVID-19 pandemic may be under control by May of 2021, Loyola University Chicago's John Felice Rome Center is proposing a tentative schedule of classes for its summer sessions: a five-week program from May 21st through June 25th, followed by a four-week program from June 26th through July 24th. 

Students may opt for either or enroll for both programs.  

These are the courses tentatively approved for the five week program.  Please bear in mind that a course must enroll a minimum of ten students.  Consequently, low-enrolled courses are likely to be cancelled.

Tuition per credit hour at the JFRC for a summer course will be $700, so a three-credit course = $2,100.  Students are required to enroll for two courses; thus tuition will be $4,200 for either the five-week or the four-week program.  The balance of the cost will vary based on the location, distance to the site, and duration of the program.

Estimated total cost (subject to change) for tuiton + program fees (includes housing) for the

Five-week program on campus =  $7,400

Four-week program Sicily = $7,500

Four-week program Abruzzo = $7,000

Four-week program Perugia = $7,000
