Lyon, France: Intensive French, Undergrad Studies in English

Study in Lyon to learn and live in one of the most attractive cities in France, creating a fresh combination of the bustle of a large European city and the simplicity of French tradition. Explore the city center with towering business buildings, blocks of busy shops, and streets lined with cafes full of Lyonnais taking their afternoon break. Then, turn onto a quiet cobblestone street and duck into a small bistro, where you are sure to get a chance to practice your French. Spend your weekends biking or strolling along the Rhône or Saône rivers, planning a Sunday picnic with friends, or wandering through some of the most well-preserved Renaissance architecture in the world. The Lyon program offers an intensive language approach at L’Université Catholique de Lyon (Lyon Catholic University), where you earn up to nine credits of French in one semester. Depending upon your language level, you will choose electives in culture, political science, cinema, economics, or literature taught specifically for USAC students. The university also offers the opportunity to enroll in courses taught in either English or French with French students.

Once in a Lifetime Opportunity

I had the opportunity to fulfill one of my life long dreams and the results were even better than I imagined. I met so many amazing and wonderful people from all over the world. The USAC staff onsite were very welcoming, friendly, and truly cared for each and every one of us. The program was laid out perfectly, with field trips being sprinkled across the semester. My favorite USAC field trip was snowshoeing in La Clusaz as the views were absolutely stunning- I have never seen anything like this being from the midwest. Lyon itself was a really engaging city, I felt like there were always events and places to go to. There were so many hidden gems throughout the city and it felt like an adventure uncovering them. The courses at UCLY were perfect and all the professors were very understanding and enjoyed answering your questions or working one on one with you. Overall, being in Lyon was an amazing opportunity and I am so grateful that I got to call that city home.
