I learned a lot more about the French culture and the language in general. It was definitely worthwhile and I would love to have had more time abroad. Lauren Stoch - Cardinal Stritch University View Entire Review
I learned what I wanted to do with the rest of college and afterwards, I am now going into the PeaceCorps to keep travelling and learning. It was indescribably worthwhile. Ian Schwenke - St. Mary's College of Maryland View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself as a person, not just as a student. I gained insight into other cultures and therefore was able to better understand the world around me. It was definitely worthwhile. I cannot begin to imagine if I had chosen a different program. A student - St. Mary's College of Maryland View Entire Review
I wouldn't spend my time write a review for the program endorsing it if I didn't think it was the best. Studying abroad is the best decision I've made in college. I got to meet incredible people from all across the U.S., France, and the world. I got to be thrown outside of my comfort zone and truly live independently, away from ...

Going abroad was a life changing experience that was without a doubt worthwhile. I learned so much about myself and am so much more confident with my abilities to be integrate into new cultures. A student - Austin College View Entire Review
I learned so much about France and their culture, and I improved and became a lot more confident speaking French. It was so worthwhile! I also got to learn so much about myself, and I fell in love with traveling even more than I had before. It definitely made me more confident and independent, and helped me figure out what I wan...

I learned a lot about myself and what I want to do with my life. I decided that I want to return as soon as I graduate and look for a job within the field of International Relations. Maxzene B - University of California - Irvine View Entire Review
Living here mostly reinforced what I had already learned about French society and culture, I didn't really find anything I wasn't expecting or experience any life-changing revelations. Audrey F - Saint Anselm College View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile and I learned about myself and people in general. You will be proud of yourself for stepping out of your comfort zone, and I plan on returning. You will learn what pushes your buttons, how you act around new people, how well you travel with other personalities, and how well you and others react to st...

I learned more French. I made new friends. I learned more about another country and how it compares to my own. It was a worthwhile experience. A student - Pace University View Entire Review
Yes, I learned many things about myself that I didn't know before, I gained experience in my field as well. I learned how to travel around in a budget and to be more open minded about other cultures as well. Sissi Garduno - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
It was the most worthwhile experience I have ever been through. If I had to do it over again I absolutely would. It was worth every dollar that I spent. I gained real-world experience, as well as professional world experience. I interned at the Cannes Film Festival and learned a lot about the entertainment industry which I am i...

I would love to be able to recommend this program. The onsite staff was great, the professors were engaging and friendly, but the lack of security provided for female students was disgraceful. I took part in this program so that I could have security and guidance during my first experience abroad. The AIFS staff onsite were wond... Doej - Western Washington University View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile and I would do it again if I got to stay with a host family. I learned things about myself, the language, and France. A student - Wartburg College View Entire Review
Take initiative! I now understand that experience and exposure is possible for anyone, whether it be in the workforce, personal life or international community. It's up to you to make the efforts and decision to step outside of your comfort zone. Joana A - University of Hartford View Entire Review

ABSOLUTELY worth it. Five stars because I made lifelong friends with memories that I will never forget. Studying abroad made me realize how much I want to travel and see the rest of the world. Madison H - Iowa State University View Entire Review
Definitely, but I wished I could have had a more personal interaction between more natives. Gunjan C - Austin College View Entire Review
My study abroad experience was amazing. It was incredibly worthwhile. As someone who had never travelled alone or out of the country, I gained so much independence. I'm now very comfortable traveling, whether it be on my own or in a group. I can handle my own travel plans. Also, though I've been studying French since I was six y...

About
Live on campus in a residence hall overlooking the Mediterranean Sea or immerse yourself in the culture living in a French homestay. Summer students live on campus in the residence hall.
You'll enjoy cultural and social activities such as day trips to St. Tropez, Monaco, Antibes, Grasse and Ile Sainte Marguerite. A 4-day trip to Paris and 2-day trip to Provence are also included. An optional 3-day trip to Florence, Italy, is available, and a 2-night London stopover before the start of the program is included for students choosing an AIFS Flight Package. Summer students choose a 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 week program. Spring semester coincides with the Cannes Film Festival, and students have the opportunity to intern or volunteer during this world-renowned festival.
A former fishing village, Cannes boasts some of the most beautiful scenery in France. Renowned for its artistic community and international festivals, Cannes combines the excitement of a cosmopolitan city with the relaxed attitude of the Mediterranean. Besides the famous film festival, Cannes hosts a vast array of cultural events. After class, immerse yourself in the culture and practice French at a café or shop along the palm-lined boulevards.
