The Luiss Summer School programmes  

The Summer School offers a programme structured into weekly sessions, running from June to September. The programmes allow students to choose the period that best suits them and the attendance format—either residential with accommodation or non-residential—ensuring high school students (starting from the third year) have a unique experience of orientation and campus life.

A fully immersive academic experience designed for third-year high school students who want to start exploring their interests in a thoughtful way and experience the campus atmosphere. Throughout the week, you'll be able to attend interdisciplinary university lectures with our faculty, participate in interactive workshops, and challenge yourself with mock exams. The programme offers the flexibility to choose between summer sessions taught in Italian or in a mixed Italian/English format, making it ideal for those who want to experience the university's international programs in advance. Additionally, upon completing the week's final exam, you'll receive extra credit that will be added to your score on the Admission Test you take the following year.

A course designed for students in their penultimate year of high school. An intensive week that simulates university life and clears up any doubts about which degree program to choose. The unique opportunity? At the end of the programme, you can take the early admission test, securing your spot at the university right away. This way, you can tackle your final year of high school knowing you’ve already achieved your most important goal.
