Currently, 85% of the student body benefit from a full or partial scholarship in order to pursue their education at UWC Adriatic.

The residential education programme offered by the College places equal emphasis on academic and co-curricular learning experiences.

All students are also required to engage fully in service-based learning, ecological and outdoor education, physical and cultural activities, as well as social and emotional learning. In addition, the UWC Adriatic educational experience draws inspiration from the surrounding rich Italian culture including art, music, architecture, history and regional languages that stimulate our students’ creativity and reflections.
