We're Here to Help You Even After You Arrive in Italy

Our support doesn't end when you arrive in Italy. We understand that moving to a new country can feel challenging, especially during the first few weeks. That's why we will do our best to guide you even after your arrival. Whether you need help searching for accommodation, finding Indian grocery shops, or understanding everyday life in Italy, we will try to assist you whenever possible. You are not alone in this journey. We are here to help you settle in with more confidence.

Finding a place to live

We can help you search for rooms, shared apartments and other options, and share what we know about housing near your university.

Everyday life

Practical tips on transport, daily routines and settling into a new city.

Documents after you arrive

We will guide you with the documentation you need to complete after arriving in Italy, within your first week.

Talk to us

Guidance through WhatsApp or online calls whenever possible.

We'll do our best to help you feel more comfortable in a new country, depending on our availability and what we can reasonably help with. We can't guarantee accommodation or services we don't provide ourselves.

Getting from the airport to your university

Landing in a new country is easier with a plan. Pick the airport you will arrive at to see the usual ways into the city, then open a route to your university.

Apps and tickets

Trains

Trenitalia (Frecciarossa and regional trains) and Italo (private high-speed). Trenìt shows live delays and platforms. Paper regional tickets must be validated at a station machine before boarding; app tickets do not.

Long-distance buses

FlixBus and Itabus connect most university cities, often cheaper than trains. Check where the bus stop is, as it is not always at the train station.

City transport

Moovit and Google Maps plan metro, tram and bus trips. Local operators include ATAC in Rome, ATM in Milan, GTT in Turin, TPER in Bologna, ACTV and ATVO in the Veneto, Autolinee Toscane, Cotral in Lazio and ANM in Naples.

First-day tips

Services, stops, timetables and fares change often, and some lines have works or strikes. Always check the operator's official site or app on the day. We can walk you through your route on WhatsApp before you fly.

Erasmus help: we guide you through the application

Erasmus programmes can fund part or all of your studies in Europe. We will guide you with the Erasmus process, from choosing the right programme to preparing your application. Deadlines and eligibility differ by programme, and awards are never guaranteed.
