Program Overview

Program Description:
Our summer, semester, and academic year options allow students with an interest in the French language and French culture and the desire to perform volunteer work the chance to live with a host family and experience French life first-hand.

On-site support for the language and culture program is organized by the staff of the Institut Mediterraneen de Langues (IML)located in the center of Montpellier. This includes arranging pick-up upon arrival in Montpellier, host family housing, access to internet services, excursions, supervision of community service activities, and general advisement.
Setting Description:
Located on the French Mediterranean coast, Montpellier is considered one of the most dynamic cities in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. The city mixes the old with the new: it has a historic area that is closed to traffic, and a modern tram system that brings students to the university.

Our goal is to make study abroad as affordable as possible. Please see our website for more details.
