    Experiencias Erasmus Roma

    Twenty first-person accounts from students who have already been to Rome, each with their score visible: those shown range from 2 to 9 out of 10, so you can read both enthusiasm and regret. They discuss the size of the city and how it conditions where you end up living, the host university (Roma Tre is mentioned), and some serious trouble with the apartment, with a 2/10 review dedicated precisely to that. Watch out for the dates: these are texts from between three and six years ago, several from the 2019/2020 academic year, so they are useful for gauging the experience, not for today's prices.

    Foro Erasmus Roma, Italia

    The Rome forum organized by academic years, with open threads for 2025-2026 and already for 2026-2027, which is where links to the WhatsApp groups for each year circulate: the 2024-2025 one has accumulated 38 replies and the 2023-2024 one stops at thirty. In between, there are very specific queries, such as how to obtain the Italian codice fiscale or what to see and do during Erasmus, and a thread by someone who was scammed by a real estate agency. It is the fastest way to find people traveling in the same year as you.
