The unique attraction of this program is its focus on the arts. It is designed for students wishing to develop their interest and talent in areas such as dance, painting, music, sculpture or architecture, while experiencing another culture. The program does not assume any fluency in French as it is set up to accommodate any linguistic ability. However, it offers a very successful language training with special emphasis on the terminology used in the arts, assuring that all committed students reach a good mastery of French before their return. Students can earn 16-20 Wells College credits, which are transferable to any other American institution.
All courses receive a letter grade.
