My Experience Studying Abroad in Grenoble, France

Jan 27, 2024

Being a STEM major, I wasn't even sure if studying abroad would be an idea I could even entertain. However, through the opportunities provided to me by CEA CAPA, my home university, and Universite Grenoble Alpes, I was able to not only study abroad in Grenoble, France but have some of the best four months of my life. What I truly fell in love with was the beautiful landscape of Grenoble, but also its history. I was blessed with amazing CEA CAPA staff who guided me and my peers through our journey abroad. We even went on an excursion to southern France, including places such as Nice, Monaco, Monte Carlo, and Cannes. When I began college, studying abroad was not really on my bucket list. However, now after having experienced what I did, I think it is essential to all individuals for personal and professional benefits!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
My advice is to push yourself out of your comfort zone. You are only given one opportunity to be in the place that you are, so meeting as many people as you can and trying new activities is in my opinion what makes the experience so worthwhile.
Pros
  • Grenoble has great views!
  • Grenoble and nearby towns have so much unique history
  • The social settings are fun
Cons
  • Traveling to other cities/countries is slightly hard because the closest "best" airport is an hour bus ride
  • Some parts of Grenoble are unsafe, especially at night for women

Best Experience Ever!

Aug 28, 2023

CEA CAPA provided me with everything i needed and helped me from planning to coming back to the USA. This was the best experience i have ever had and it was seamless as i had a lot of help. While on sight in Grenoble, we had our advisor Justine. She was born and raised in the town we were living in and going to school at. She taught every thing we needed know about living in France from public transportation, the food and even helped improve are French skills. She was absolutely unforgettable and took care us from the moment we arrived to when we left France

Pros
  • Friends for a life time
  • Traveling the world
  • Resume builder
Cons
  • Costs of going abroad
  • home sickness
  • Culture shock

Finding family in the French Alps

Nov 30, 2022

While studying abroad in Grenoble, France, I was blessed with three younger siblings for the first time in my life. My host parents were beyond wonderful, cooking classic dishes from the French Alps and making me genuinely feel at home while I was farther from home than I had ever been before in my life. Still in touch, they reach out over what's app regularly, as do I, and although I have missed seeing my little siblings grow in person, I look forward to seeing them again someday in the future. However, these weren't the only connections I made there. The point person for CEA in the French Alps is beyond wonder and exceptionally talented at her job. She was great at accommodating the many unique personalities of the students

Pros
  • Meeting and becoming a part a French family
  • My professors and classmates were exceptionally wonderful. We even got dinner together as a class with the professor after exams!
  • UGA campus is incredibly cool with fantastic libraries, athletic facilities, and niche opportunities (such as the Parkour class I took)
Cons
  • Learning how to use trams was hard. I walked home many time because I missed the last tram, and I was also ticketed for not using it properly.
  • There were some areas of town which I crossed daily that felt potentially dangerous especially after dark.
  • The time change was hard to work with while navigating a long distance relationship.
