Travel and
Accommodation
All students must have a valid passport. Students
are responsible for making their own travel arrangements
to and from Vatican City. Duquesne University
will not be responsible for any personal injury,
property damage, or illness encountered by participating
students during the program. All students are
advised to purchase the appropriate medical, accidental,
and travel insurance.
Students are housed in the Trinitarian Guesthouse, Casa Per Ferie Santa Maria alle Fornaci (located 300 meters from St. Peter's Basilica). All rooms are air conditioned, double occupancy with individual bathrooms and shower.
All classes are held in the Guesthouse in the conference center. The Guesthouse is located just a three-minute walk to the front
door of St. Peter's Basilica, which houses the
burial site of the first pope and which adjoins
the Vatican Palace, home to the current pontiff,
Pope Benedict XVI.
Site Visits
As a part of the curriculum, there will be site
visits to the modern Roman courts. The
classes will also visit the Vatican courts
in the Cancelleria and Rome's four major basilicas
(St. Peter's, St. John Lateran, St. Mary Major,
and St. Paul's-outside-the-Walls.)
