Luiss Counselor Fly-in 2026

September 14–16, 2026

Get an up-close look at the Luiss world with the Counselor Fly-in 2026, an immersive experience designed for school counselors, education advisors, and international partners who are interested in learning more about the university’s educational offerings, campus, and educational model.

The program was created to strengthen dialogue with key international partners in the world of education and to provide an opportunity for direct discussion on the orientation, admission, and support processes for international students.

The Counselor Fly-in is much more than a traditional campus visit; it offers privileged access to the Luiss world. It’s an opportunity to meet faculty and academic leadership, learn more about the student journey, and discover the university’s connections with international companies, institutions, and networks. 

Held in Rome, the program brings together a select group of guidance professionals from partner schools and organizations across different countries, fostering dialogue, the exchange of perspectives, and the development of an international network of education professionals.
