Continue your U.S. high school journey in the City of Lights—studying with American classmates while exploring life abroad.
Spend a semester abroad following U.S.-aligned high school classes with a small group of American students. Our hybrid model allows you to customize your schedule with in-person instruction at the Paris CIEE Center and online courses through ASU Prep Global. Live with a French host family, build friendships in a close-knit cohort, and immerse yourself in Parisian life while staying on track with your high school’s graduation requirements.
You’ll have plenty of time to make Paris your own, from late-afternoon picnics by the Seine to finding “your” café for morning chocolat chaud. From everyday moments to planned excursions, your semester abroad builds confidence for college and creates memories that last a lifetime.

CIEE changed my life, it opened up so many new doorways and connections. I've met some of my closest friends on program and had the best time ever. I had a lot of memorable experiences, but I loved going on vacations with my host family and doing activities with my friends and club at school!
