The American Overseas School of Rome (AOSR) has been a cornerstone of international education in Italy since 1947. Located in Rome, we serve about 610 students, with 70% coming from diplomatic and international families representing over 50 countries. We offer a full academic path from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12, featuring both the International Baccalaureate (IB) and American diploma programmes.

Our educational approach is grounded in four core values: respect, integrity, responsibility, and trust. These principles guide intellectual growth, foster intercultural understanding, and develop the leadership skills needed in an interconnected world.

AOSR has been a leader in offering the IB Diploma Programme since 1989, establishing itself as one of Rome's pioneering schools in international education. In 2025–2026, we expect 96% or higher of our seniors to graduate with an IB Diploma. Last year, we celebrated a 100% IB pass rate and this year we have a record number of IB candidates, thanks to our comprehensive course offering. Our graduates continue to excel, gaining acceptance to top universities worldwide including MIT, Yale, Harvard, UC Berkeley, University of Toronto, Bocconi, King's College London, and the United States Naval Academy. The IB Diploma's recognition as equivalent to the Italian "Maturità" also opens doors to leading Italian universities.

We provide more than academics. Students thrive in athletics, music, and the visual arts. Educational trips and community service projects build responsibility and leadership. With 20+ IB courses, AOSR offers one of the broadest selections in Italy.

AOSR is a close-knit community where students, educators, and families build strong, supportive relationships. We invest in faculty development, state-of-the-art-facilities, and advanced technology to stay ahead in international education.
