How is Italy as Study Abroad Destination

 
Italy is a beautiful cultural country with its own unique style and civilization. Unfortunately not many people are aware of Italy as study abroad destination still it attracts thousands of students every year to mover there for higher education. The reason why you have never heard much of Italy is because it does not have many top ranked universities of the world. However, it does not mean that it is a bas country for education. International students who went to Italy, making it their study abroad destination, claimed to have an amazing time, enjoyed every little detail of it and were satisfied of their decision of studying in Italy.
 
Italy is basically a Non-English country just like Germany and France. Their native language is Italian. I don’t think many students around the world like you can speak Italian good enough to actually attend and understand university lectures in this language. Since Italy wants itself to be a study abroad destination for international students, it offers English-Taught programs in which whole lectures and study work is done in English language as English in the most spoken international language. If you can speak that is even better and you can study in Italian-Taught programs as offered English-Taught programs are always limited in every country and there is a slight chance you might not get the course of choice.
 

 
Is Italy Up to the Mark for Quality Education?
 
Many people around the world claim that Italy’s education system is not up to the mark as their presence is not very big in all top universities ranking. However, I would have to disagree on this point. There are many countries like United Kingdom, Australia and Germany that has many of their educational institutes among the top 100 universities of the world. But it is a sour fact that it is not very easy to get admission in these universities as competition there gets very tough and every student wants to study at top university.
 
Now United States of America is currently considered the best country for higher education as it has the most top ranked universities of the world. There are over 4000 higher educational institutes in USA, if you don’t get admission in one of these top ranked universities then you will apply somewhere else which might rank lower. Here I have a question, would you rather study at a university ranked 700th in USA or at a university ranked 300th in Italy. I bet your choice would be Italy though Italy is not the best and top ranked country for higher education like United States of America. This proves my point that instead of judging a country we should scrutinize the university we are going to study in. You should find a nice university for yourself that provides quality education instead of selecting some country just because it is a brand. Italy is still ranked the 13th best country for Higher Education by QS Ranking Higher Education Systems.
 
You should really consider Italy as your Study Abroad destination that is why today in this article, I have mentioned all the best things about studying abroad in Italy and how is Italy as study abroad destination to broaden your knowledge and horizons of the world and to aware you that the world is bigger than just United States, United Kingdom and Australia.
