After seeing a drastic drop in numbers due to the pandemic, study abroad in Italy has rebounded in a remarkable way. According to the Institute of International Education’s Open Door Report (2023), there were over 30,000 US study abroad students in Italy during the 2021/2022 academic year (Institute of International Education, 2023), making it the most popular destination for US students abroad. This makes up a significant proportion of all US students who had international experiences that academic year. While there are a number of extremely positive outcomes to educational opportunities abroad, they also come with their own set of developmental issues and challenges that are not always clear to students pre-departure.
