About Fly to Rome

Program Overview

Students participating in the Fly to Rome program can study at Temple’s Rome Campus for up to three consecutive semesters at TUJ tuition rates within one calendar year. 

Here are a few possible study timelines:

Fall start → Spring → Summer end
Spring start → Summer → Fall end
Summer start → Fall → Spring end

To get started, students must apply for their first semester by the application deadline. Students that decide to stay longer must reach out to the Education Abroad Office to extend their stay and follow all relevant protocol and deadlines.

Academics

Temple Rome offers courses in a variety of disciplines, including Communication Studies, Tourism and Hospitality, Business, and more, all taught in English. 

Fly to Rome students are required to take at least one Italian language course during their studies (unless you’ve already completed a college-level Italian course). 

All Fly to Rome participants must enroll in a full-time course load (12 credits in Fall & Spring, 6 in Summer) each semester. 

Because Temple’s Main Campus is part of the broader Temple network, courses typically transfer 1:1. However, students are encouraged to consult with their academic advisor about their course selection before participating in the program.
