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.
