Spend your semester in beautiful France! On the Semester in Paris program, the city will be your classroom for courses in language, history, literature and art of France, among others.

Have you ever thought about studying in France, but you’ve never taken any French? Have you already taken a few years of French and really want to improve your language skills? Whatever the case, we have the perfect program for you! Semester in Paris gives you all the academic flexibility you’ll need to make your semester in France a perfect fit.

Considered one of the most famous cities in the world, Paris is known for many different reasons.  If it's art you love, you'll find it.  Nightlife? Check.  Famous sites? Plenty.  A whole semester to try to see and do it all.

While studying at Institute d'Etudes Superieures des Arts, you'll learn French while taking elective courses in English - the best of both worlds.

Upon arrival you'll meet your French ami - your "buddy" for the semester who will introduce you to life in Paris.  Visit the surrounding regions - Versailles, Normandy, or the Loire Valley and you'll truly experience all that the region has to offer.
