We are providing this information to help you plan ahead for your packing and shipping needs. Please do not ship anything to the College until you have received your letter of acceptance.
General NAC shipping rule- “Ship well and buy little!” Personal effects, especially those associated with living spaces are generally more expensive in Italy than in the U.S.; this includes clothing, musical equipment, books, etc. When packing to move to Rome, remember you are moving to Rome to live and thus simplicity is important but you above all need to be able to live and pray here for a significant period of time. So don’t be shy about bringing what you are going to need, considering it is more expensive to re-buy things you already have.
