I gained knowledge on navigating a heavily touristy place and what scams to be aware of and avoid. In my classes for anthropology, I learned more techniques for conducting fieldwork and noticing more about my environment. Angelica - Wellesley College View Entire Review

This experience has been priceless to me. I learned so much about myself in my ability to overcome obstacles, be independent, and stick up for what I think and believe in. As a business student, I also learned a few hard lessons in international business, managing diversity, and cultural sensitivities.

I learned to not be afraid to immerse myself in another culture. Traveling the world is something I want to do the rest of my life. Being abroad helped me realize that about myself. A student - University of Tampa View Entire Review
Study abroad was an enormously influential experience. I met some of the greatest people and we became closer in 4 months than I could have possibly imagined. Study abroad has given me the confidence to leave my comfort zone and realize that I can not only survive but thrive in difficult circumstances. Andrew C - James Madison University View Entire Review
I learned so much about opening my eyes up to other cultures and ideas. I learned more about being independent and willing to try new things. Overall, I think this program helped me mature and understand the world better. Jamie D - University of Mississippi View Entire Review
About
SAI invites students to experience an American-style education in the heart of Paris!
Founded in 1962, The American University of Paris (AUP) is one of the oldest American institutions of higher learning in Europe, offering a fully US-accredited liberal arts curriculum. AUP courses are taught in English, with additional electives available in French. The curriculum is discipline based, comparative, and cross-cultural, including a wide range of academic subjects.
SAI oversees and coordinates all aspects of student enrollment, including application processing, course selection and credit, visa advising, housing, student health insurance, and transcripts. In addition, SAI provides comprehensive student services, from the moment of application, through the on-site experience, until students return home.
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.
SAI students in Paris experience the overlapping cultural currents which flow through this ancient city; from its origins as a small settlement on the banks of the Seine River, to its globally-recognized status as the capital of modern French culture. From astonishing architecture, to world-class fine arts, to a thriving business scene, the treasures of Paris many and varied.
