La Màgia Institute began hosting mainly Architecture programs in Rome, but today hosts programs from diverse disciplines.  As LMI continues to grow, so does its network of faculty, administrators, students, and professionals in Rome. Thus, taking advantage of La Màgia's services gives each program a unique opportunity for enrichment both on an individual and group basis.

Please visit the La Màgia Services page to see how your program might benefit from cooperation with LMI. 

La Magia offers the following:  student and faculty housing in the Centro Storico, Trastevere, Monti and other neighborhoods in Rome; studio/didactic space in Trastevere and the Centro Storico; assistance with arrival and filing of necessary Italian documentation upon arrival; and administrative assistance for programs without a Rome campus. 

How to reserve space for your group:
     Please contact us no less than 3-6 months before the projected start date of your program to ensure an arrangement best adapted to your program.
     Once you have contacted La Màgia Institute planning will begin.  Please be sure to have your program dates and an approximate number of students in mind. For further information on the reservation process please, click here.

Architecture Programs
     Faculty and staff development is possible with La Màgia given the wide network of architecture professionals, both Italian and American, in Rome.  The large network of American programs in Rome also lends to development of curriculum and showcases the wide variety of study done- from baroque to fascist to post-modern architecture. 
     La Màgia offers modest housing facilities in some of the most popular neighborhoods in Rome, to students and faculty.  Students usually live in multiple-person apartments or dorm-style residences shared with other students. 
    Didactic space for studio, classes and guest lectures are available upon reservation for individual events, studio space, or a semester long program.

Permit of Stay
     The Permit of Stay or Permesso di Soggiorno is required by Italian law for stays over 90 days.  Currently, the application process for obtaining the permit is carried out through the Italian Post.  La Magia helps navigate students and faculty through this process by staying up to date on developments in Italian immigration law.

Declaration of Presence
     The Declaration of Stay or Dichiarazione di Presenza is required by Italian law for students and faculty participating in programs under 90 days upon entrance into Italy from another Schengen country.  The declaration is done for the traveler at Customs and Immigration if entrance into Italy is from a non-Schengen country, with a stamp from Italian authorities.
