What is the best place to study abroad in Italy for serious finance student? John Cabot University?
I want to be in the midst of the Italian cultural experience and be intellectually challenged while studying abroad.

John Cabot is a good choice. However check out also the American University of Rome, it may be also another good pick. I live in Rome and go to an American School and I can assure you that John Cabot and the American University are one of those colleges that the students apply for. Good luck!

Do we need a lawyer to help with a student visa to Italy?
Do we need a lawyer to help with a student visa to Italy?
My husband is applying to get a professional training visa for 1 or 2 years for study in Italy and I will be applying for a visa to accompany him. We have looked at the Italian consulate website and know about the forms and evidence that we need, but we were wondering if it is even possible to do this ourselves, or should we hire a lawyer? If so, how expensive are they? I'd love to hear from people who have done this with or without legal help who can give us some insight into the best way to handle this.

what I know, you don't need to hire a lawyer for your visa, you can get a travel agent to do errands for you, compared to lawyers TA is much cheaper, because you will only pay their service fee not professional fee.

no, I dont think so, look at this pdf, can be useful http://www.stranieriinitalia.it/news/guidaistruzione/inglese.pdf

I've applied for a student visa. My school offers a service where you assembly all of the materials and they submit the visa application and its accompanying materials for you. Perhaps your educational institution offers a similar program at the Study Abroad or Global Education office. You definitely don't need a lawyer. Think about all of the people who apply for and get visas to come to the United States--they didn't have lawyers! I actually applied on my own (without my school), despite that tangent that I went on about universities offering the service. I went to the consulate general in New York City and the only advice that I have for you is make sure that you have absolutely all of the application materials! Be anal about it because they have sent me among many others out of their office crying! So to that end, go in there with a thick skin. You can do this on your own, I have total confidence in you. I was 19 at the time (last summer), and I went in alone. Also, get there two hours before they're scheduled to open. If you're a student, I believe student visas are free. Check the website. I don't know how much they cost for non-students.

Just which race would they be showing bias toward? Irish isn't a race is it?

Hi, i'm italian. There is racism also in other states, it's everywhere. There are intelligent people that aren't racist and other that are.
4 :
" I have heard and know italians can be racist" well explain this sentence, can you tell me news about racism happened in italy lately??? interesting! so you live in holland where the last local elections were won from the party of Gert Wilder, an extremist xenophobic racist, criticized for his extremism also by the United Nations Secretary Ban Ki-moon mmmh probably you should be worried about racism in your country, not in italy!
5 :
:) hi! italians aren't racist, maybe singular people are! stupid people are obviusly in every country but not in particulary in Italy... don't worry about.. u will not have problems!
6 :
What can I say? I'm italian and yes, some italian could be often racist: but usually, if they are racist, they are racist with people coming from North Africa or Romanian, 'cause they think they are coming to steal job. It's stupid, I know, but also racism is stupid. Don't worry about you: you are a kind of wasp girl for the racist people, coming in Italy to study and not to steal job. So, I think that your year will pass with no problem :) Just another thing: I usually don't ask about the behavior of an entire nation, 'cause this too could seem racist... I suppose that you can't speak in the name of the all irish people :)

Italians can be racists? In what way? With you? With someone else? Whereabout is this trend that anyone think that Italians are racists? Do you know the amount of immigrants we got here? Why should we be racists more than other countries? Why more than Holland? Or Ireland? What the HELL italians should be racists again another european when we guest tons of other ethincities which are totally allright here? Wierd enough that Italians are labelled to be racists when is the ethnicity who have to face more racism ever from EVERYBODY and every country on this world....LOL @Sara: Ferrara is a northern small provincial city, is not a good sample of all of Italy... @The original etc: There are TONS of black immigrants who live happily in Italy, two options: or you are just biased or just an hater....if Italy is against blacks try other European countries or the Greater Usa!!...For sure we are far more civilized than you and your own folks...

This is a common assumption, and sadly dear president Silvio isn't doing anything to help this stereotype. As an exchange student i didn't encounter any racism towards myself, but I did notice some segregation, not by law, but perhaps by culture. It seems that the immigrant population never truly becomes acknowledged as Italian unless they look the part. With that said i doubt you'll have any trouble and if anything Italians will just want to practice their English with you.

Italian are not racists as a "people" there are Italians that are individually racist, of course. Nowadays there is some worry regarding immigration from Islamic areas, Africa and Romania. As "traditional hate" towards the other there are still traces of Antisemitism (depicted as Antisionism), Germans (in the north) and British (UK) people. Put your half italian side and you will go well!

italians aren't so racist as some nations are so don't worry about that and as an other one said it we are racist only with africans and east-european people. have a nice trip in here! :)
