SAI invites students to explore French studies in the heart of Paris at the Cours de Civilisation Française de La Sorbonne (CCFS)! Our students enjoy a rich French immersion experience, based on techniques developed by CCFS over more than a century of language instruction. Courses include classroom work, as well as work in the phonetics lab to help students improve grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary. Emphasis is also placed on improving verbal expression and perfecting everyday usage through interaction with instructors and classmates.

In addition to supporting students throughout their stay in Paris, SAI’s on site staff also coordinates a range of activities and excursions throughout the term, including a weekend trip to the South of France (semester only), a visit to “l’Institut du Monde Arabe Museum”, a walking tour of Paris, a day Trip to Deauville, and much more.
