Università degli Studi di Roma 'La Sapienza' Facoltà di Farmacia e Medicina Sede di Latina

The Latina campus provides modern facilities designed for a streamlined student experience.

• Polo Pontino Teaching Hub: Located in the city center, featuring modern classrooms, multimedia labs, and administrative offices.
• Medical Library (Latina): A specialized branch of the Sapienza library system with dedicated study spaces for medical students.
• Simulation Lab: On-site facilities for practical training in clinical maneuvers and emergency response.
• Student Services: Dedicated orientation and tutoring offices specifically for students based in the Pontine area.
• Sports: Access to local sports facilities via agreements with Sapienza Sport.

The clinical core of the Latina campus is its high-specialty hospital network:

• Ospedale Santa Maria Goretti (Latina): A major DEA (Department of Emergency and Admissions) Level I hospital. It is the primary teaching hospital where students begin clinical rotations.
• ICOT (Istituto Chirurgico Ortopedico Traumatologico): A world-class center for orthopedics and rehabilitation where students gain specialized surgical exposure.
• Local Health Unit (ASL Latina): Students participate in public health initiatives and community medicine throughout the province.

Fees are identical to the main Sapienza Rome campus, based on the ISEEU-U.

Scholarship

• DiSCo Lazio Grants: Students in Latina have full access to regional scholarships, including tuition waivers, free canteen meals, and cash stipends (up to €7,000).
• Merit Awards: Sapienza’s "Wanted the Best" and other merit-based fee reductions apply.
• 150-Hour Collaboration: Paid student work opportunities are available within the Latina campus offices and library.

• The Vibe: A quiet, safe, and functional provincial capital. It is ideal for students who prefer a calm environment for studying.
• Connectivity:
• Train: The Latina Scalo station connects to Roma Termini in about 35-45 minutes by frequent regional trains.
• Bus: Local shuttle buses connect the train station to the city center and the hospital.
• Safety: Very high. Latina is a peaceful residential city.

• Accommodation: While there are fewer public residences than in Rome, the private rental market in Latina is very accessible and affordable for students.
• Dining: Subsidized canteen services are available for students near the teaching sites and the hospital.
• Vibe: Latina is a "planned city" with wide streets and a modern feel. It offers a quieter, more focused academic life than the chaotic energy of Rome, but with easy access to the coast (Sabaudia/San Felice Circeo).

• Degree Status: The degree is "abilitante," allowing immediate medical practice upon graduation.
• Benefit: Students at the Latina campus receive the exact same diploma as those in Rome, but often benefit from more direct interaction with clinical staff due to the smaller group sizes.
