Image of United World College of the Adriatic United World College of the Adriatic:
United World College of the Adriatic (UWC Adriatic) is a residential school offering a high school study abroad program for students aged 16-19 years. We bring together 180 students from around the world for the final two years of their high school education. Our school is located in the Italian / Slovene village of Duino / Devin, 16km from the city of Trieste, in the province of Trieste in north-eastern Italy, at the cultural crossroad of Italian, Slovene and Austrian heritage. The city is situated towards the end of a narrow strip of land lying between the Adriatic Sea and Italy's border with Slovenia, in southern Europe.

In Duino you will appreciate being part of an international and English-speaking college in a peaceful Italian village. The village is located between two cities (Monfalcone and Trieste) which are easily accessible thanks to an efficient bus service. The nearest airport is Trieste International Airport (Ronchi dei Legionari), only 20 minutes drive from Duino. The village has several small shops for daily needs but these larger cities offer a much wider variety and lower prices. There are many interesting places reflecting the beautiful nature and historical heritage of Italy in the vicinity, such as Venice, Padova, Trieste, Aquileia and Grado.

The College has an atmosphere closer to university than school. We offer students the opportunity to thrive in an atmosphere of managed independence that acts as a stepping stone between school and university.

At RIC, there is no uniform, no bells ring and everybody is on first name terms. Students are encouraged to be themselves and achieve exam results that often exceed their expectations.

“My wife and I left RIC after our visit convinced it was the right move for our daughter. In fact, it’s the kind of school we both would have loved to have gone to ourselves.”

Rome International School
Courses / Programs
Located in the heart of Rome, Lazio, in central-western Italy, Rome International School is a private international school providing an international education for children in nursery to grade 13. RIS has chosen to link with what we believe is the most prestigious of all educational systems, the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). With this is mind we offer the early, primary, middle years and International Baccalaureate Diploma Program. Students may still follow the two year British National Curriculum GCSE course before taking the IB Diploma program.

Although we firmly consider ourselves an international school, we never forget the language and culture of our host country and appreciate that many of our families still require the guarantee of an excellent preparation for the Italian state exam at the end of Grade 9 (Terza media). For this reason, students receive ample time for Italian lessons in language. Non-Italian students will study and learn to appreciate the Italian language and culture through a parallel course of instruction with our IAL teacher. Students taking a third foreign language may have the opportunity to sit external exams in the secondary school.
