There are two processes in which you can apply for your Italian visa:
Group Visa Process: This means that the study away advisor for the Rome campus will collect all of your visa application documents by a specific date and go to the Italian Consulate in NYC on your behalf to apply for your visa.
Independent Visa Process: (Go on your own to the Italian Consulate) This process will be required for students who are ineligible for the group process. You will submit your visa application on your own directly at the Italian Consulate.

If you are a citizen of a country other than the U.S., you may have additional student visa requirements and it may take longer to process the student visa. Be sure to factor in extra time accordingly.
Please note that you may have to apply for your study away student visa in the US. It may not be possible to apply for your study away student visa in your home country.
If you will be outside the U.S. for five (5) months or more, you will need a new I-20 signature from a designated person on campus before you leave. Katie Clair at Trinity College can sign I-20s.
Ensure that your U.S. visa is still valid in order for you to re-enter the U.S. after your semester abroad. Please consult with your international student advisor on all questions and immigration requirements.

Your passport is the only universally accepted form of identification. If you lose it, you’ve lost all means of travel and the means to register with the authorities. Without your passport, you cannot leave any country.
A passport is an official government document that certifies one's identity and citizenship.
In order to travel to another country, you must have a valid passport with an expiration date at least 6 months past your date of return.
If you don't have a passport yet or it is about to expire, apply for a new one NOW. Processing time for U.S. passport applications can be 4-8 weeks or longer.
For US citizens, visit this website to apply for or renew your passport.
For international students, visit your country’s specific passport website.
Have a copy of the photo page of your passport saved & accessible to you and your family. Should you lose your passport this will save a lot of time and hassle.
