Summer Abroad Programs- Rome
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.

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
