Why Choose St. Stephen's? The Eternal City is Your Campus

Choosing a school is about more than academics; it's about choosing a community and an experience that will shape your child’s worldview. At St. Stephen’s, we offer a truly unparalleled educational journey:

A World-Class Education in a World Heritage City: Our campus is nestled in the historic heart of Rome, steps away from the Colosseum, Circus Maximus, and the Roman Forum. Here, history, art, and culture are not just subjects in a textbook—they are your child’s extended classroom. This unique access provides an immersive learning environment that few schools in the world can match.

The Flexibility of Day and Boarding: We provide a seamless, supportive experience for both day students and boarders. Our boarding program, including the state-of-the-art College residence near the Colosseum, offers a warm, home-like environment where students from over 70 nationalities build a close-knit global family right here in Rome.

A Rigorous, Global Curriculum: We prepare students for the future with our challenging International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and American high school diploma, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and intellectual curiosity. Our small class sizes and 6:1 student-to-teacher ratio ensure personalized attention for every learner.

A New Era in Admissions: Introducing the GL CAT4 Test

In our ongoing commitment to finding students who will thrive in our global community, St. Stephen's is introducing a significant change to our admissions process this year. We are adopting the GL CAT4 test (Cognitive Abilities Test) for incoming students.

This move from our previous assessment represents a strategic shift towards understanding a student’s innate cognitive reasoning abilities, which are strong predictors of academic potential and future success. The CAT4 will provide us with a more holistic view of each applicant, helping us ensure they are well-suited for the challenges and opportunities of our International Baccalaureate curriculum. 

Scheduled CAT4 Test Dates:

  • Monday, November 3rd: 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM

  • Wednesday, December 3rd: 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

  • Saturday, January 17th: 9:00 AM

We encourage all interested families to mark their calendars for both our Open Houses and the new assessment dates. For more information or to RSVP for an event, please visit our Admissions Page or contact the admissions office.

We look forward to welcoming you to St. Stephen's soon and showing you how we turn the eternal city into an extraordinary education.
