In some private and catholic schools they do wear uniforms. There are no dances like prom, but they do go dancing in clubs. Teenagers in Italy are like the teenagers in the US, not many differences there, besides the fact that there is no age restriction to drink alcohol in Italy.

Hi...I'm italian and next year I do an exchange, too. Here in Italy we don't wear uniform but normal clothes. We like music, books... like in every country... Lots of things are like other countries... If you want to know more you can ask me evrything... Bye
3 :
Teenagers are like elsewhere in the world...and in Italy they like to socialize quite a lot Uniform it depends from the school and about dance I dont think so but they can go clubbing since they are 16 and in some clubs even younger

No, they don't wear uniforms and don't have dances like prom. High School (scuola superiore) in Italy can be choosen... more or less there're these type of school: Liceo (that can be Scientifico, Classico, Linguistico, ecc; see more here http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liceo ), Istituto Tecnico (that can be Industraile, per il turismo, Commerciale, ecc. http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istituto_tecnico) and Istituto Professionale (that has many addresses). http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuola_secondaria_di_secondo_grado What do you mean with "What are teenagers like?"? Regilla and giugiu said nonsense

We don't have any uniform restriction in Italy. As regards prom, we don't have a proper one, but most part of institutes organize a party in some disco once or twice a year (at least, every school did when I was a student). We don't really need one, though, since there's no legal age to enter a club. You should consider that Italian liceum is way harder than American high school (my experience, I graduated in Kansas a few years ago). Nothing to be too concerned about, just keep that into account.

What is the usual cost of a student visa (to Italy)?
My parents have agreed to finance an exchange program to Italy on the condition that I pay for everything not included in the fees.... So does anybody know the cost of visa fees?

Italians are very friendly. You're going to love it! It's a very nice country these days. Just be sure to show up in a tee-shirt with a big red maple leaf on it so they don't think you're an American. Lots of American kids get maple leaf tee shirts to wear overseas. I think they sell them in airport shops here. (BTW if you go to France in a maple leaf tee shirt, they'll be disappointed if you don't speak French).

i'm italian...we are friendly it's true,but don't try to talk with aged people,they wont understand anything you'll say...the can speak ( the majority) only italian...have a nice holiday!
3 :
don't worry we tend to be friendly and you don't need to pretend to be canadian, we don't really care. as they told you, old people speak only italian and sometimes not even standard italian, the rest of the country pretends to know english...
