Meet Transylvania

More Than a Place to Study

For international families, choosing a school also means choosing a place to call home.

Sibiu combines the character of a historic European city with a comfortable pace of life and easy access to nature. Students grow up surrounded by different cultures, languages, traditions and landscapes — all within a region that offers countless opportunities to explore.

Transylvania becomes part of their educational experience.

A European City with Character

Historic streets, lively squares, cultural events and a strong international community make Sibiu a distinctive place to live and study.

The city is large enough to offer the services, activities and opportunities families need, while remaining compact and accessible for everyday life.

For SIS students, Sibiu is more than the city around their school — its museums, public spaces, sports facilities and cultural life become part of their wider learning environment.

From the City to the Mountains

One of the great advantages of living in Sibiu is how quickly the city gives way to nature.

The landscapes surrounding Sibiu offer mountains, forests, villages and open countryside to discover. Outdoor experiences give students opportunities to explore, stay active and develop a connection with the natural world around them.

Nature is not something students only learn about — it is something they can experience.

Learning from the World Around Us

Transylvania has been shaped by different peoples, languages and traditions over centuries. Its architecture, communities and cultural heritage give students opportunities to encounter history beyond textbooks.

Growing up in this environment encourages curiosity, respect for different perspectives and a broader understanding of the world.

For an international school community, it is a natural setting in which to learn what it means to be both locally connected and globally minded.
