The AIFS Study Center in Florence

The AIFS study center is in a great location in the heart of the city, in particular in a 13th century palazzo in the Santa Croce district. It houses the student services office and classrooms and is within walking distance of all the main sights, museums, markets and shops.

Partnership Institutions

ABC School: small friendly language school that has been teaching Italian to foreigners since 1982. AIFS’ main partnership institution, where we have our own American annex for AIFS programs.
Comments from past AIFS Partnership participants: "[I have] never heard so much laughter coming out of a classroom as when there is an Italian class. Learning a language has never been so much fun!"

CLIDA – Centro Linguistico Dante Alighieri: a large prestigious school, situated in an impressive palazzo in the charming Republic Square, one of the oldest Italian language schools in Italy.
