Program Mission
Our mission is to enable you to develop a deeper understanding
of the world and a broader perspective on your own country.
We aim to provide an academic experience that increases your
competency in the French language, while allowing you to elect
courses that fit your academic goals. If you qualify for a course
and the opportunity exists, we will work with you to make it
happen. That has been our focus since 1948.

ACADEMIC PROGRAM
O R I E N TAT I O N
The preliminary orientation session is designed to help acquaint you with academic
life in France. It provides practical knowledge of the French language and academic
culture so you can readily use it in your studies. Moreover, it provides an introduction
to French culture and an immersion experience of the French way of life.
Orientation for FALL-SEMESTER AND YEAR students studying in Paris and Nice
takes places in Tours, “le jardin de la France,” at the Institut d’Études Françaises de
Touraine, a unit of the Université François Rabelais. The experience in Tours offers
a perspective on “la vie de province,” and a better understanding of the diversity of
French life.
Your program of study during the two-week orientation session in Tours will depend
on your level of proficiency in French when you arrive (determined by an online
placement test). Class work usually includes practical training in composition,
translation and conversation. One unit of credit (equivalent to a semester course)
is granted for those fall-semester and year students who successfully complete the
intensive session.
In addition to classes, the session includes cultural activities, such as visits to
local museums and châteaux. During this time, you also meet with both the
resident director and assistant director to plan your academic calendar and living
arrangements in Paris or Nice.
Orientation for students arriving for the SPRING SEMESTER ONLY in Paris
and Nice will be held at the JYF offices in their respective cities. Due to its shorter
duration, there is no credit offered for the spring orientation session.

EXPERIENCING FRANCE
There are a number of excursions and social events we organize as a group.
In the fall Paris program, in addition to the excursions in and around Tours, we host
a Seine river cruise, tour the Opéra Bastille, visit the catacombs, and journey to a city
in a different region of France, such as Strasbourg in Alsace or Avignon in Provence.
We take a day trip to Reims to see the Cathedral and the Pommery champagne
caves. At Thanksgiving, we celebrate with dinner at a Parisian restaurant. In the
spring, we take a day trip to Rouen, visit Versailles on a guided tour, and travel to
Normandy to see Bayeux, the American Cemetery, the D-Day landing beaches,
Saint-Malo and Mont Saint-Michel.

SEMESTER OR YEAR
Once you are accepted into the JYF program, the details of your course of study
are provided prior to your departure, so you can discuss and confirm your possible
course selection with your faculty advisor at your home institution. We encourage
you to plan individual programs that correspond to your interests and to the
requirements of your major. Please remember that you will be able to attend
some courses before finalizing a schedule. Our students take courses at various
institutions:
• One of the Paris universities or the University of Nice
• The Institut Catholique in Paris, the Alliance française, other foreign language institutes
• One of the many ateliers or specialized schools of music and performing arts
• Our own JYF program, which regularly offers courses (taught in French) in language, art
history and political science
Park in Nice
In the Nice program, we visit the beautiful cities of Villefranche, Eze, Saint-Tropez,
Beaulieu, Antibes, Cannes and Monte Carlo. Each semester, there is a weekend
excursion to Aix-en-Provence, Avignon or Marseille.
E X A M I N AT I O N S
Exams are taken at the end of the preliminary session and at the end of each
semester.
C O U R S E S O F F E R E D T H R O U G H S W E E T B R I A R JY F I N PA R I S A N D N I C E
Since one of our aims is to integrate you into regular French university life, we offer
a limited number of special courses. These courses are taught by French professors
at the JYF location in Paris and Nice.

INTERNSHIPS
JYF offers a limited number of internships in areas such as politics, the press,
social agencies, scientific research and medicine for those who are staying a
second semester in Paris. A small number of internships are also available in Nice.
Approval from your home institution and from a faculty sponsor is necessary.
Course work for the internship includes a research paper and reports. One unit
of credit (three credit hours) is granted for the successful completion of the
internship.
A S S I S TA N T S H I P S I N S E C O N DA RY S C H O O L S
Students may volunteer to serve as assistants to French teachers of English. The
amount of time involved varies from two to six hours per week. Although these
assistantships carry no academic credit, they offer excellent opportunities to have
direct contact with French primary or secondary schools, to gain experience in
teaching and leadership, and to enhance your resume.

T H E PA R I S U N I V E R S I T I E S
Since 1970, the University of Paris has been
divided into 13 separate universities. JYF
has signed special agreements with three
universities — Paris III (Sorbonne-Nouvelle),
Paris IV (Paris-Sorbonne) and Paris VII
(Denis Diderot). Normally, students enroll at
one university for the semester; there, they
take regular classes with French students. In
addition, JYF organizes individual or group
tutoring sessions in several disciplines (art
history, history, literature, political science,
etc.) and for any course in which you may
need additional help.
Course listings are released immediately prior to
the beginning of each semester, so it is usually
not possible to finalize your course choice far
in advance. However, course listings generally
change little from year to year. Our website,
jyf.sbc.edu, provides recent examples of course
listings and more specific information.
A list of the main undergraduate departments
at each of the three Paris universities where
our students take courses — and of the courses
typically offered — is on the following pages.

OTHER INSTITUTIONS
Alliance Française
The Ecole Internationale de Langue et Civilisation
Françaises of the Alliance Française offers courses in
French language, literature and civilization to students
and teachers of French as a foreign language. The school
houses our offices and classrooms and organizes a special
semester course in phonetics for JYF students.
Institut Catholique de Paris
This is the Catholic University of Paris, founded in
1875. Students of all faiths are welcome, and members
of the JYF regularly elect courses there, particularly
in the fields of philosophy, religion, social sciences and
education.
Language Schools
Language departments in the various universities
mostly cater to language majors. Even first-year courses
have French students who have studied the language
through high school. If you’ve studied a language for
one or two years, you may choose to consider the better
language schools in Paris, such as the Institut Goethe
for German, the Instituto Cervantes for Spanish, the
Centre de Langue et Culture Italienne for Italian, or the
Institut du Monde Arabe for Arabic.
Studios and Art School
A list of recommended schools in studio art and
dance is available if you are interested. In music (both
instrumental and voice) you can take courses at two
prestigious schools, the Ecole Normale de Musique de
Paris and the Schola Cantorum. In theater, you can take
courses at the Ecole Florent, another prestigious school.

UNIVERSITY OF NICE
The University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis,
founded in 1965, includes four campuses
and serves about 25,000 students; the JYF
offices are located at the Carlone Campus,
and many of our students take courses
there. The proximity of Nice to Italy makes
it an attractive location for those combining
French studies with Italian or history, as well
as other fields. At the University of Nice, the
final “contrôles” (exams) take place before
Christmas; for spring semester courses,
exams are given at the beginning of May.
Our academic consultant is available to help
you register for courses and prepare you for
the expectations of the university system.

If you prefer to take a dance or music class
for recreation only, there are several dance
studios in town, as well as private music
teachers recommended by the program.
There are also private theater studios.
To attend classes in painting, sculpture,
drawing, photography or film, you must

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Students normally live with French families in Tours, Paris and Nice. Our families
are carefully selected and evaluated by students in the program every year. We look
for host families who are truly interested in welcoming American students. In
Paris and in Nice, most students will have single rooms. Other housing options are
available if you do not wish to stay with a French family. Requests for alternate living
arrangements must be made at the time of application or soon after. Approval is
required by both the host college and the parents.

WHY JYF
O L D E S T I N PA R I S
Sweet Briar College JYF is the oldest coeducational
intercollegiate program in Paris. Created in 1923 by
the University of Delaware, this program has been
administered by Sweet Briar College since 1948.
TRUE IMMERSION
Students are registered and take classes at various
Paris universities, at the University of Nice and at
other institutes of higher learning and visual and
performing arts.
S P E C I A L I Z AT I O N
Our program is intended for juniors, but we will
consider accepting sophomores for the spring semester
and seniors for the fall semester under special
circumstances.
CHOICE
JYF’s size enables us to offer many more academic
opportunities than smaller study abroad programs.
UNIVERSITIES
We have academic agreements with three Paris
universities — Paris III (Sorbonne Nouvelle), Paris IV
(Paris-Sorbonne) and Paris VII (Denis Diderot) —
and with the University of Nice.
GUARANTEED FEE
Our fees are not subject to fluctuations during the year
resulting from variations in the value of the dollar.
I N C LU S I V E PA C KA G E
Our fees include transatlantic transportation (for
Paris fall and Paris yearlong program attendees only),
registration in several institutions, room and board,
group excursions, medical and personal liability
insurance, baggage handling and theater and museum
fees related to courses. Any expenses not included are
clearly stated in our suggested budget. Visit jyf.sbc.edu
for details.
Mont St-Michel
The JYF in Paris and Nice complies with section 504 of the Rehabilitation
Act of 1973 and accepts students with disabilities who can successfully pursue
a demanding and rigorous program of study in France. Further information
may be obtained from the JYF in Paris and Nice office or the Office of
the Dean at Sweet Briar College. The dean of the College is designated to
coordinate compliance with section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
