True Immersion

Students are registered as regular students at the University of Nice/Sofia Antipolis and do the same work as their French counterparts. We believe that students selected by the Junior Year in France are able to take regular university courses with French students. We do everything possible to facilitate this by providing group or individual tutoring sessions.

Selected Host Families

All our families are carefully selected and evaluated by students every year. We look for families truly interested in welcoming American students.

Guaranteed Fee

The fee is not subject to fluctuations resulting from variations in the value of the dollar. It includes: Registration in several institutions, studio courses, room and board, group excursions, medical and personal liability insurance. Round-trip airfare is NOT included. Any other expenses (books, personal expenses, etc) not included are clearly stated in our suggested budget.
