Every year, AUR welcomes a host of U.S. students who arrive at AUR鈥檚 beautiful Rome campus to experience Italian culture and enrich their studies through a study abroad experience. At the same time, many of AUR's full-time resident students also travel the world for a semester or two outside Rome through AUR's own study abroad program, AURA.
AUR actively encourages all of its students to travel, to meet new people and experience new cultures, and to benefit academically from taking classes with other universities and other students. The AURA program at AUR has been set up so that our students can do all of this at no extra tuition cost - AUR students can enjoy all the benefits of being a full-time student at institutions across the world and not pay anything extra.
A great example of how this system works is AUR's exchange with Emory University in Atlanta, USA, one of the most prestigious universities in America, where two of AUR's juniors, Elena Santandrea and Elianne Dewulf, are currently enjoying an amazing semester abroad. Recently, we had the opportunity to ask them how things were going.
