Erede del Collegio Romano nel terzo millennio, la Gregoriana esprime lo spirito ignaziano nel metodo pedagogico e nell'impostazione degli studi. Oltre a ricercare l'eccellenza nell'insegnamento, nella riflessione personale e nella ricerca, ha la finalità di formare persone provenienti da tutte le culture a "pensare nella Chiesa", discernendo come "cercare e trovare Dio in tutte le cose".

**DISCLAIMER: This review is in regards to the Wednesday Papal Audience for Sposi Novelli and…read moreregular ticket holders** If you are reading this, you are probably on your way to Rome and have booked tickets for the Wednesday's Papal Audience, and the Bishops' office asked you to pick them up in person a day before the audience. I've created the Yelp page for the Bishops' office to make it easier for everyone to find it. They are located two blocks from the Trevi Fountain, and it can get a little tricky. I would suggest for you to use their GPS/navigation and utilize the address on this Yelp profile. I came here with my husband because we were going to be part of the Sposi Novelli celebration - the Sposi Novelli are different from the regular ticket holders because you get to sit right below the St. Peter's Cathedral and your seats are located next to the Pope and the Bishops - and were asked to bring our marriage certificate before hand. The staff was really helpful and got all of our paperwork situated really quickly. They also gave us more information about the Papal Audience and what to expect that day. They were also having confessions from 3-6pm, which was great, because you are supposed to go to the audience in a state of peace. Last time we attended the Wednesday Papal Audience, we had to FAX the official Vatican office and pick up our tickets directly from the Vatican which was the worst idea! So I would recommend to book them through the US Bishop office and it will save you a lot of time and headaches.

my mom really wanted to do the wednesday papal audience so the task fell to me to get the tickets…read more i started doing some research and it seemed like the process of contacting the vatican city office was complicated. i found this place off a blog and thank goodness, it saved me so much time. i had emailed last year and they advised me since the june schedule wasn't out yet, to email them again in march. march came around and i emailed them again. i was able to reserve 16 tickets for our entire family and they sent an email with very clear instructions on how to pick them up. once in rome, we picked up the tickets on tuesday as instructed. the email listed directions on how to get there from the trevi fountain. we followed the directions and it was very accurate. we arrived and it was such an easy experience to pick up our tickets. very happy with the experience!

The terraces are out there auditioning for a movie. Warner Brothers listen up! Every corner is adorned with ivy and sunlight. As nooks were pointed out, there was at least one student tucked away studying or reading. Honestly, if my college looked like this, I'd still be there, majoring in espresso and minoring in how not to fail at adulting.

Downstairs is the large cafeteria and student lounge. This building is a lot more modern than the Guarini Campus, but is also has a bit more of a hospital appearance due to lack of antiquity within the rooms and hallways.
