What gap year programs are there in Italy?

Question

I want a homestay program preferably, I already speak fluent Italian so I do not want to be around tons of Americans. Preferably for over a month period.

Answer 1

If you google "gap year italy", you'll come up with dozens of programs but since most are American, you'll probably end up being surrounded by lots of Americans. Instead, why not look into studying at an Italian university as an auditing student?  You will get a visa, go to classes, but the classes don't count. Or look into taking language and culture courses at the Università per Stranieri in Perugia where you'll study in Italian but will be in contact with people from different nations.
