France | Academic Year Program

High school select (regional options)

CEI is thrilled to present an exciting opportunity : studying at a French secondary school (Collège or Lycée) while living with a welcoming volunteer host family.

Immersion in a French host family

Living with a host family provides a unique chance to deeply engage with a new culture. Our host families, as varied as our participants, are meticulously chosen for this experience. We put significant effort into pairing students with families by considering their profiles, personalities, and mutual interests, guaranteeing a pleasant and enriching stay. This approach not only boosts cultural appreciation but also creates enduring bonds and memories that will last forever.

CEI can offer the following guarantees :

A choice of region.
An urban placement.
Accomodations to specific dietary restrictions/allergies.
A specific extra-curricular activity (sport, music…).
Private schools upon request with additional extra fees.

Students are placed in a host family on a full board basis.
