Description: Abroadco's study abroad program in Paris allows high school students to earn college credit while take summer courses at The American University of Paris. Abroadco is the only program for high school students at this prestigious university. You will live and study in the City of Light, the center of European art and culture.

Academics

The French Language and Culture session allows high school students to get a head start on college by taking one 4-credit French class and one 3-credit elective taught in English. You will find plenty of time to practice your French with fellow students and the many class-related activities. The electives offer you the opportunity to experience Paris through the classroom, particularly with the painting and art history courses. Upon completion of the session, students will be issued an official AUP university transcript that will reflect 7 credit hours of coursework.
