I will be entering my senior year of high school and graduating in June 2009. i was wondering if it is possible to do a degree program for languages, or anything for that matter in Florence Italy. Has anyone ever done that? Is it possible to go from high school to a University in Italy and not in the US? Anyone have any experience with this and could you help me if you do?

I don't think so, your first year is mostly that "get to know you" crap, and they don't want you to fall through the cracks your first semester there by taking on something intense like time abroad. But second semester you should be GOLDEN. All I can say is GO GO GO!!!! and good luck!

probably. i live in britain and hold a European Union passport so i can move inbetween te 22 countries already in the EU you must apply and then get a student visa, they can convert your grades to italian equivelnts so you wont need to take additional exams, te first year of university is not get to know you crap as in previous answers, a serious degree is started straight away with smaller tutor groups meeting for once a week troughout the year, no get to know you suff could take a year the uni doesnt care about your personality

Yes. I answered your other question about studying in Italy, but here is a great source for degree programs in Florence. This is the link so you can do a personalized search for the type of degree you want to earn: http://www.degreeabroad.com/search.cfm ... and then this is a link of general degree programs: http://www.degreeabroad.com/listings.cfm/countryID/43/mainregionID/62/studytypeID/2 You don't need a first year or semester of college in the U.S. before leaving ... why waste your time, if you really want to be in Florence? Just jump in! Good luck!
