From the terrace outside the cafeteria one sees olive groves, Tuscan hills, and downtown Florence in the distance. During the first month, only language classes are taught. Most students take Italian, which is offered at beginning and intermediate levels. Students may also select other language courses. There are approximately 400 students at the EUI, most of them from the Member States of the European Union.
Students are responsible for their own travel expenses.
While in Florence, students must pay for their own housing and other living expenses. This fee helps support the exchange. The EUI Exchange Program is only open to UW Law Students in their Second or Third Years. The Application Procedure for the current year will be made available in January of that year. Students in the past have tended to emphasize comparative law, international law, or European law in their independent study.
