Year in France

Experience "la vie en rose" by living with a host family and attending a local school for a whole school year in France

This program is dedicated to students between 15 and 18 years old willing for a full immersion into French culture.
They will share the daily life of their host family, will go to local school and will have the opportunity to find out more about their local community.
The program starts with a national arrival orientation and ends with a national end-of-stay orientation, both in Paris.
In beetween, they will have several opportunities to attend local orientations and events, and to meet with the other AFSers within their local chapter.
