Ho assistito alle lezioni extra in vista delle prove provinciale delle olimpiadi di matematica. Ho trovato molto utili le informazioni sulla posizione degli edifici delle rispettive facoltà. Oltre a vantare una affascinante architettura ritengo sia un'ottima università per facoltà come Ingegneria Aerospaziale e Filosofia.

Davvero una bella università. Molto competenti i professori della facoltà di Medicina e Odontoiatria. Ho sentito dire che è ottima per gli studenti stranieri. A livello burocratico può risultare complessa. Per il resto, è davvero ottima come università. La mia università negli Stati Uniti ha un programma dove c'è la possibilità di studiare alla Sapienza per un periodo di tempo.
