I need good information (books, internet, etc) for living/studying in Rome, Italy?

Question

I’m moving to Rome to study at an Italian university. I need information about finding housing, getting visas and what steps I need to take before I leave to ensure that I am well prepared when I get there. Let me know of anything (especially books) that you might have found useful.

Answer 1

You don't quote if you're European or not (and this makes a big difference).- As to visas,papers,etc. pls apply the closest Italian Consulate or Embassy to be 100% safe. You cannot relay on any answer coming from any source on the Internet.
As to the book I've found one that seems to fit your needs.
Here's the link to buy it on line

As to the housing I know that Universities have special conventions for their students and the my suggestion is to address yr request to your school. You'll get the best accomodation at the cheapest price...!!

Good luck
