Summer 2025

May 19 - 22, 2025 in Lafayette
May 24 - June 7 in Paris

Program Description

Imagine spending June in Paris: enjoying open-air cafés, sipping wine beneath the Eiffel Tower, strolling along the Seine, visiting the Latin Quarter, and fully experiencing the City of Light—all while earning credits from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

We are excited to offer a two-week summer program in Paris, France, where students can take 2 courses for a total of six credit hours. The courses are designed to make the most of the cultural and historical resources that Paris and its surroundings have to offer. The schedule allows students to explore both the city and nearby areas while receiving college-level instruction from knowledgeable and dedicated professors.

Through the classes offered, you might learn about the celebrated art collections at the Musée d'Orsay or the Louvre, visit the glorious Palace of Versailles, or sketch or paint the major gardens and other sites of the city.  You will visit the most beautiful attractions in the world along with discovering small Parisian neighborhoods.   As part of every class, you will visit Paris and the surrounding areas and gain a new perspective on France and Europe.  So take this opportunity to open yourself to new cultures and new ideas and to return home with a broader outlook and enriched educational experience. In addition to scheduled class meetings, excursions, and field trips, long weekends allow students to travel independently to neighboring countries in Western Europe. Optional excursions will also be available at additional, modest cost.  Because Paris is a major rail hub for Europe, such countries as England, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, and even Italy and Spain are within easy reach.

Cost

The program cost is $4,899, plus University fees of $240, totaling $5,139. A late fee of $100 will be added to your program cost after December 16th. Program cost includes tuition for 6 credit hours, lodging in two-person rooms/four-six person apartments, metro passes, museum entrance fees, and transportation for program-sponsored field trips. Round-trip airfare on the group flight which includes transportation to and from the airport is $1,993.
