    Why study abroad with UGA Cortona? Since 1970, the University of Georgia Cortona Program, located in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Italy, has been a leader in education abroad. It is UGA’s oldest study abroad program, calling the town of Cortona home for over 50 years. You will be housed in a UGA-owned facility whose foundation dates back to the 15th century with UGA staff and knowledgeable faculty on hand during your entire study abroad experience.
  • Painting Studios

    The Betty F. King Painting Studio is one of UGA Cortona’s most remarkable studio spaces. Located in the JDK Center, it is a deconsecrated chapel, fully renovated and equipped with full-spectrum studio lighting and a radiant heating system beneath its terra cotta floor.
