There are 354 foreign schools/colleges listed, 7 of them in Rome. I did not check other cities in Italy. It's not too late! Take whatever help the government gives you!

Most of the ones I found in Rome were along the lines of "PONTIFICAL NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE" Which sounds like some sort of religious institution. Also, none of the major Italian universities in Rome are listed, to say nothing of the University of Padova here in Padova/Padua, which is one of the oldest universities in the world, and where Galileo spent "the happiest years of his life". Granted, these days it's not ranked that well worldwide, but hey, who knows where they'll end up, and getting 10% grabbed sounds like a bad deal.
