Viscontea is located in the center of Milan, in a strategic position, really close to the most important universities of the city. Since its foundation it has been a benchmark for the Milanese university scene as it welcomes students, in addition to its sixty residents, to attend a range of formative activities the residence offers.
With its personalized training project Viscontea helps university students to deepen and integrate university teaching with the “soft skills” that are increasingly required by the world of work.
About us
Viscontea
Direction Team
Viscontea is led by professionals in the educational field. Their training is in continuous development; each year the members of the direction conduct refresher training and methodological enrichment.
The personal relationship that develops between direction and students is one of the many strengths of life at Viscontea; it is a relationship built on listening and openness, to calmly face the challenges and embrace increasingly ambitious goals.
"The university residence that welcomed me when I was only 18 years old, and that, through a JUMP course and a tertulia, a lunch and a birthday party organization, passing through a retreat and the preparation of a theatrical show, accompanied me on my growth path, opening me to horizons that I could never have imagined, pushing me to look beyond and not to remain closed in on myself. A home away from home ... with strong relationships that still fill my life today, far from Milan."

"It was a fantastic journey. Thanks to the Viscontea College, I found my professional way but also my spiritual path. There was courage to make you dream big, but there was also friendship and support for you to realize it."

Viscontea was my home during the years of university at Bocconi. A welcoming, open and stimulating place that has helped me to grow as a person and as a professional. Each room contains indelible memories of situations lived close to person that even today I consider important friends.

Media Relations Officer @ Generali Italia and Global Business Lines
"In Viscontea I found the warm and affectionate embrace of a special family. I lived five years full of emotions that gave me the enthusiasm of having enriched my life with more than 150 girls from all over the world, trusted friends always ready to listen to me and advise me. I discovered my own path, the creative one that, thanks to the thousands of opportunities and experiences offered by the residence, I was able to cultivate at best with so much faith and passion."
Annamaria Naso
Studentessa magistrale in Communication Design @ NABA
"In Viscontea I learned the value of study done with love, to take care of the details to prepare myself for my future professional life. The JUMP courses and many guests have been really important for a complete growth and to keep on dreaming. But I could have done nothing without those friendships, true and lasting, born during my university years in Viscontea."

Residence Stories
The atmosphere that reigns in Viscontea is that of a typical welcoming home that is always open, where everyone cares for each other and works together for the good of all.
Life in the Residence is marked by commitment to daily practice, but is enriched by moments of fun, shared experiences, cultural studies and sports, that must be part of a young and university environment.
Like in a family, every resident is called on to take on small tasks to form a strong sense of responsibility and accountability, and to develop human skills both of relational and managerial nature. This approach will provide a wealth of essential experiences for the student’s personal and professional growth.
Home Administration Team
At Viscontea we take care of every detail to make residents feel at home. Specialized teams take care of housekeeping, cooking, cleaning and laundry services, creating a warm and cozy home.
Meals are prepared to provide a healthy and balanced diet. Like family, we pamper our students on joyous occasions such as holidays, birthdays and anniversaries.
