What the Students Say

 
     “I learned a lot about other cultures not only from being in France but also from other students on the program. We had small classes which allowed us to be more comfortable asking questions. The professors are enthusiastic and seem to be passionate about teaching.”

   “It was my first time in Europe. The whole experience was really good. If you like France and Europe, and you want to learn French during the summer, you should come here!“
Ruan, China, 2009

   "Studying with the European Summer Program over the summer was an amazing experience, it challenged me to step out of my 
         confort zone and explore and learn a new culture and language. Not only did I learn a lot about myself over the summer, I learned
         that experiencing new tinkgs can open your mind to new interesting ideas."

   "Lille is the perfect place to situate a program like the European Summer Program because it is so culturally rich and diverse. The
        European Summer Team and fellow students made me feel right at home. We have been one bis family: living, eating and 
        experiencing new things together. My words are inadequate to describe how awesome this trip has been."
                                                                                                                                                                                  Maria, Netherlands, 2009

   "I have learned so much about France and about myself while being here. I am so glad that I was able to share this experience with
        all the new and wonderful people I have met on this trip."
                                                                                                                                                                                                Cookie, USA, 2007

   "The European Summer Program was the experience of a lifetime. I can't wait to go back to Lille! As my first European experience, it 
         was perfect, because I was surrounded by people who could tell me about the culture and history from an insider's perspective. It 
         was great to experience a different country less like a tourist and more like a resident".
