French Language & Culture Program
Recommended U.S. credits are shown in parentheses. Language credits shown are for Semester (6) and Extended Semester (9) language courses.
All students are required to take French language plus a maximum of 3 seminars for up to 15 credits for the Semester or 18 credits for the Extended Semester.
Students take a French language placement test after arrival in Cannes in order to determine the appropriate course level. We advise students to gain pre-approval for several different levels of French from their university advisors in the U.S. before traveling to France in order to ensure that they are able to receive credit for the course that they test into. Language levels are defined according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and will be listed on your transcript on completion of the program.
Courses are subject to change at the discretion of the Campus International de Cannes. A minimum enrollment of 10 students is required for a course to run.
