Wells in Florence

Wells in Florence Take advantage of a unique opportunity to study and live in Florence, Italy. The main building on Via Faenza dates back to the 13th century.

The Wells College Florence Program offers a unique opportunity to study and live in Florence, Italyโ€™s most important and dynamic cultural center. The thousands of students, from more than 200 American colleges and universities, who have participated in the Wells College Florence Program have praised it for its efficient organization, the excellent personal, academic and logistical support, the clo

se and personalized staff-student relationship, the rich and varied curriculum (more than 250 courses), the professionalism and commitment of the faculty, the uniqueness of the one-week Orientation and Culture Immersion in Florence, the cultural activities and excursions. Located in the historical and business center of Florence, Lorenzo de'Medici is the leading private international school in Florence. It occupies ten (10) buildings in the heart of Florence, all within a few minutes from each other. Originally a convent, over the years it has been renovated. It has offices, classrooms, facilities for the cooking and wine tasting courses, and a cafe-cafeteria. The Wells College Florence Program's local advisor has her office in the main building. "The Wells College Florence Program exceeded my expectations more than I could have imagined." (A.M., Tulane University)
