Link Campus University is a private university in Rome, founded in 1999 as a subsidiary of the University of Malta and recognised as an independent Italian university by ministerial decree in 2011. Based at the historic Casale di San Pio V near the Vatican, it offers English-taught Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Communication Sciences, Political Science, Business/Corporate Management and Media, alongside its wider Italian-medium catalogue.
Link Campus University's main campus is the Casale di San Pio V, a 1567 manor built as Pope Pius V's summer residence and later a Chigi family estate, set in parkland a short distance from the Vatican and central Rome; the university acquired the property in 2016. It is a small, non-profit private institution with a reported enrollment in the 1,000-2,000 student range, giving mini-classes capped around 25 students for its international programmes. Campus facilities include lecture halls in the historic manor, a university library, a language centre, and mixed frontal/live-streaming delivery with recorded lectures available on a digital learning platform.

Link Campus does not operate its own residence halls; the university's accommodation service helps students find housing near campus or convenient public transport, sourcing options such as short-let apartments, bed & breakfasts and boarding-school-style residences with cost and landlord details, though it is not a real-estate brokerage. Independent Rome housing-market data for 2026 puts a shared-apartment room at roughly EUR 450-650 per month (up to EUR 1,100 for premium options), and students should add this to their annual budget alongside the EUR 9,500 English-track tuition.

Rome has an extensive general food scene near any campus location, but Link Campus's international pages do not describe a dedicated South Asian or Indian catering service on site; students should expect to source Indian groceries and restaurants independently in central Rome rather than immediately around the Casale di San Pio V campus. The university's accommodation team can advise on housing near areas with better food-shopping access as part of its general settling-in support.
Rome is a major European capital with standard big-city safety considerations (petty theft, pickpocketing near tourist areas); Link Campus's international office provides settling-in guidance through its Student Services and Welcome and Accommodation teams. As with any large city, current safety guidance should be checked directly with the university and, for non-EU nationals, with home-country travel advisories before arrival. Link International, Link Campus's office for non-Italian applicants, runs admissions end to end: pre-application review, a language/records interview, Declaration of Value/Apostille help, and visa-support-letter issuance for non-EU/EEA students. The Rome-branch Student Services and Welcome and Accommodation teams support housing search, orientation and settling-in once enrolled.

Other universities in Italy
Italy is one of Europe's most credible destinations for English-medium MBBS/MD education. With 16 public universities offering WHO and NMC-recognised programs, admission through the objective IMAT entrance exam, and tuition fees far below UK or Australian alternatives, Italy deserves serious attention from Indian students who want a globally respected medical degree at a realistic total cost.
Italy's public university MBBS fees are income-based and vary by institution and student financial profile. For most Indian students, effective annual tuition ranges from €2,700–5,000.

IMAT is the only admission test for English-medium Medicine and Surgery programs at Italian public universities. For Indian students, it is both the entrance and the shortlisting mechanism — how you perform on IMAT determines which of the 16 universities you can access.
