The best way to learn a language and broaden cultural understanding is through immersion. We encourage our Italian language students to study abroad in Recanati, Italy. Plus, it's fun!

Testimonial:

"My time with Campus L'Infinito in Recanati was an amazing experience. The professors were very effective, creative and top notch. We had visiting professors come in to do specialized lessons with us....The school hosted many social events in different unique spots....The 'infinite' experiences package brings you on many trips to explore different cities with private tour guides from the school."

If you are planning to independently study and take courses at institutions abroad that are not part of this program, please see 'Taking Courses Abroad' for important guidelines.
