Duke University in Rome
The Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome (ICCS) was established in 1965 by representatives of ten American colleges and universities; the number of member institutions has now grown to 90. It provides undergraduate students with an opportunity in Rome to study ancient history and archaeology, Greek and Latin literature, and ancient art. ICCS has received generous aid from the Danforth Foundation, The Old Dominion Foundation, The Mellon Foundation, and the David and Lucille Packard Foundation, as well as the continuing support of a consortium of colleges and universities, and contributions from former students.

IES in Italy
Everywhere you go in Italy, reminders of the past mix with scenes of modern life. You may pass Roman ruins, a medieval cathedral and cloister, and a Renaissance fountain, all on your way to shop at an ultramodern mall. Outside the cities as well - by the sea, in mountains, fields, or wine country - spectacular natural beauty and the splendor of past centuries go hand in hand. A Roman aqueduct towers over the ski slopes; a bicyclist stays overnight at a former palace, now a hostel.
The hard part is deciding where to study abroad - in Rome, "the eternal city"; in Milan, the fashion center of Europe; or in Siena, a smaller city in the beautiful Tuscan countryside.
Fortunately IES Abroad programs in these three cities offer you both specialized and broad courses of study. And the Italians in all three cities are famous for their hospitality and friendliness.
Lexia in Italy
Rome is the capital city of three of the world′s most famous cultures. As the former seat of ancient Roman Civilization, it contains some of the most renowned painting, sculpture, and architecture on earth, bringing thousands of archeologists, scholars, and artists to its piazzas and ruins each year. As the spiritual and political center of the Catholic Church, it is home to more than twenty international relief and peace organizations and a common destination for Christian pilgrims. As the bustling capital of the Italian state, it is home to numerous governmental and educational institutions and attracts Italians from all over the country, as well as immigrants worldwide.
Lexia students immersed in the myriad cultures of its over three million residents will have great opportunity for engagement and comparison as well as the chance to participate in the historical scholarship and humanitarian projects that involve many of the city′s residents.
ISEP exchanges
ISEP offers bilateral exchange in over 200 locations worldwide. Need based financial aid and scholarships granted by Rhodes apply to these exchange programs. Students participating on these exchanges pay tuition (and in some cases room and board) to Rhodes and receive financial aid as if they were at Rhodes. Credit is treated as transfer credit.
