Nestled in Rome, the American Overseas School of Rome (AOSR) is a leading international educational institution in Italy, founded in 1946. We welcome approximately 600 students, with 70% hailing from Diplomatic and international families representing over 50 countries. Our educational journey spans from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12, offering both the International Baccalaureate (IB) and American diploma programs.

At AOSR, our educational philosophy centers on four core values: respect, integrity, responsibility, and trust. These values guide our students toward intellectual growth, intercultural understanding, and the development of leadership skills crucial in our interconnected world.

AOSR has championed the IB International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme since 1989, distinguishing us as a pioneering school in Rome. Our dedication to excellence is evident in our impressive IB Diploma pass rate. Under the guidance of our experienced faculty, AOSR students gain acceptance into renowned global universities. Over the past three years our students have been accepted into institutions like MIT, Yale, Harvard, UC Berkeley, University of Toronto, University of California Los Angeles, Bocconi, King's College London, and the United States Naval Academy. The IB programme's equivalence with the Italian "Maturità" also opens doors to top Italian universities.

AOSR offers diverse opportunities for students, fostering excellence not only academically but also in athletics, music, and visual arts. Educational trips to historical sites and community-focused service projects cultivate commitment and leadership. We proudly offer 20+ IB courses, one of Italy's most comprehensive selections.

Strong relationships thrive among students, educators, and peers in our close-knit community. We maintain high expectations and adapt to evolving international education trends. Investments in faculty expertise, facilities, and technology affirm our leadership in international education.

Since its introduction, the IB program at AOSR has flourished. In 2023, we doubled our IB Diploma candidates, with an anticipated 83% of AOSR seniors graduating with an IB Diploma in 2023-24. We rank as a top IB school in Italy, reinforcing our position as the region's most experienced IB institution.

With decades of experience, AOSR seamlessly integrates the IB Diploma Programme into Rome's educational landscape. Our dedicated College Counselor and IB Coordinator support students throughout their journey. We invite all to join our community of innovative learners, fostering courage, curiosity, and boundless joy. We believe in creating experiences and memories that shape extraordinary futures.
