Answer 1

If you want to study in France for cheap and have a good time I would look into Universite de Bourgogne. I studied there for a month last summer and the tuition was only 610 Euro for one month! Not bad compared to other schools, I also stayed on campus and that was an additional 328 Euro. (about $1400US, cheaper when I went due to exchange rates) They also took us on 2 excursions (about $300 each) to Paris and to Loire Valley (which I missed to go to Nice instead). Dijon is about 2 hours south east of Charles De Gaulle airport by train. The University was nice because there were students there from all around the world, classes were about 3-4 hours a day and we had the weekends to ourselves. The town is small, but it's really nice. There was plenty of shopping and places to eat. You are close to Germany and Switzerland too. You can also take day trips to Paris since it's so close, student in my group would go to shop for a day then come back. I looked through the book and didn't see any GPA requirements, which makes sense because you are directly enrolled into the school, you get a student ID and everything. You can eat on campus so food can get a little expensive if you venture out for lunch or dinner. But good luck, if you have any questions email me. I included a link to the programs website...Check it out there is a lot of info! :) -Jake

Answer 2

Careful as "collège" in French means middle school.

I assume you mean universities? What do you want to study? Do you already speak French? Would you be doing a French language course?

I liked attending this school;

Here is it's sister school in Paris (although it's best to study French outside of Paris for a number of reasons);

Both are excellent for learning French.

Angers set up housing for me. All I had to do was buy a plane ticket.

Personally, I think U.S. university programs are much too expensive and isolating. They boast that they give college credit but for the money, I think it's better to study at home and then go over to France. I left after graduation.

Hope that helps!
