Perche vorrei andare laggiu e pagare molto?

I think it is better and wiser to attend an Italian university, assuming they have decent teaching. For one thing, the tuition is incredibly low by American standards--about $500 per year. I am guess this is not the case with this place in Deruta. Of course, all the other expenses are just as high as in the US, maybe higher near a popular city; and you have to pass a language exam which is only given in Italy. Nevertheless, it is better to contact and attend an Italian university and experience the "real life".

Going to Italy to be taught in English amounts to a very expensive vacation.

Wumpus The school of ceramics and an italian University are two very different things: Often we have professor of ceramics and professionals coming to improve their skill or anyway getting a different experience in throwing,decorating,raku..... As far as I know an italian university does not offer any symilar thing - Also an average degree in an italian university is 4 years , it will be impossible for a professional potter to take years off to get a degree... Thanks Paolo
