This program is a unique opportunity for students to take full advantage of one of the world’s most fascinating and evocative cities while, if they wish, improving their French.

Students choose a Major and a Minor from our course options. They can study French at any level—from beginner to immersion courses like Paris: Ville Imaginaire—or opt for courses in English such as Fashion, International Law, or Medicine. All courses are taught using Paris as a classroom.

Beyond the classroom, students spend the summer exploring famous museums such as the Louvre, visiting historic sites like Versailles, tasting delicious French cuisine, and discovering all that Parisian culture has to offer.

About Paris

Few cities can begin to match Paris. A center of learning and political power from the Middle Ages onwards, Paris became Europe and the world’s cultural epicenter in the late 17^th century. The city invented the haute-cuisine that defines culinary excellence to this day, and invented the haute-couture for which it is justly celebrated. At the same time, Parisian artists, academics, and intellectuals, dreamed up ideas and movements that conquered the world and still define our tastes, thoughts, and beliefs. Alongside, the city accrued the greatest art collections in the world, and some of the most remarkable monuments, which many of our students use as the bases for their studies.

Here are Oxbridge’s five top tips for writing...

“I chose Law which was a subject that I am very interested in but had never gotten the opportunity to study. In the class, our opinions and intellectual abilities were stretched, and new thoughts and ideas were explored.”

“Fashion is my passion. I wanted to pursue it in more depth, and what better place to do so than New York. I loved this program! It has truly been a once in a lifetime experience.”

“My French teacher recommended the program when I told her I wanted to be fluent. I loved being in Montpellier, I made amazing friends, the staff was awesome, and I loved the dorms. I loved the program. It exceeded my expectations and they were high.”
