Orvieto is an ideal study abroad location for Saint Anselm students. Italy is the birthplace of both Saint Anselm and Saint Benedict, and Orvieto is within easy driving distance of important Benedictine monasteries, including Monte Cassino and Subiaco, which were founded by Saint Benedict in the sixth century. In many ways, the foundation of the distinctive Catholic, liberal arts education that we provide is rooted there, in the history of the church, literature and the arts that pervades the entire country. Studying in Orvieto is an opportunity for our students, not only to take their Saint Anselm experiences global, but to engage with our Benedictine educational tradition at its heart. — DR. STEVEN R.

The narrow roads, the gothic cathedral, and the city squares will make you feel as if you have stepped back in time and help you to appreciate the long history of the region.

All classes are taught in the newly restored sixteenth-century Simoncelli Palace in the Piazza del Popolo (which hosts open-air market stands twice a week). This beautiful three-story building is located on the opposite side of the square from the imposing medieval Palazzo del Popolo. Along with fully equipped classrooms, a computer lab with high-speed internet is available for student use.

Most apartments are shared by four students and contain two double occupancy bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a living room.
