SCHOOL: LORENZO de' MEDICI

Athena and its partner school Lorenzo de' Medici (LdM) offers a unique educational option: a small, personal campus in a big city. The mission is to give students a quality academic experience that will open their minds to a new way of thinking through their exposure to the city.

Students are nurtured throughout their academic program by close, one-on-one attention with school staff and faculty. The school promotes and facilitates cultural exchange with local people, and continually works to ensure an all-absorbing experience of growth and discovery through academic and cultural development.

Students have the opportunity to collaborate with a wide variety of professionals as well as several national and international institutions located throughout Rome.
