Where You'll Study
AIFS Abroad partners with Les Ateliers FL in Nice to host program classes in a modern, fully equipped academic building in the city center. Known for the quality of its teaching, instructors are specialists in the teaching of French language and culture. Located steps from Place Masséna, the Coulée Verte, and the charming Old Town, the school offers an ideal setting for learning French while experiencing the vibrant culture of the French Riviera. Students will find shops, cafés, restaurants, and cultural attractions nearby, with convenient tram and bus connections providing easy access throughout the city.
For the duration of the internship placement, students will be housed in a residence in Cannes so they can be in the heart of the action and be more conveniently located for working or attending evening events.
