Office & Housing

Boston University’s Center for Italian and European Studies, including classrooms and administrative offices, is located within walking distance of the historic center of town. Students live in Italian households or in a student residence hall. Households selected represent a wide range of incomes and situations, from a grandmother living alone to a couple living in the city to a suburban family with several young children. For many students, living in an Italian home and commuting to classes on local transportation is an important part of experiencing local life. Students are provided a single room, continental breakfast, three dinners a week with the host family, and a stipend for meals not taken with their hosts.
