Meet Sophia, a study abroad student in Rome!

Hi! I’m a rising sophomore studying abroad this Summer in Rome, Italy, through Fordham’s Documentary Photography program. I’m undecided but leaning towards the New Media and Digital Design major. I chose this program because I’m incredibly passionate about photography, and spending a summer dedicated to my art in a place as gorgeous as Rome is a dream realized. I look forward to wandering walkable streets, eating fantastic foods, and meeting my fellow classmates!

Meet Aurora, a study abroad student in London!

Hi! My name is Aurora Marcianti, I am a rising junior Psychology and Political Science Double Major at FCRH. I am so excited to be spending my summer with the Fordham in London programme!! I am most looking forward to exploring everything there is to do in London! It has always been my favorite city to travel to and I always find new things to do! I am most excited to see shows on the West End, especially Romeo and Juliet with Tom Holland, as well as visiting all of the castles and learning about the royal history of England. I ultimately chose this program due to its location and for the ability to travel throughout Europe in my spare time!

Meet Molly, a study abroad student in Australia!

Hello! My name is Molly Lataille, and I am a senior at Fordham College at Rose Hill. I am majoring in Psychology and minoring in Marketing. This summer, I am studying abroad in Sydney, Australia through CIEE. I chose this program because I get the best of both worlds, the city and the beach, right at my fingertips. I arrived a little over a week ago, and I am excited to continue exploring, getting out of my comfort zone, and meeting new people Down Under!
