Application

Now accepting applications for Fall 2021 and Academic Year 2021-22!

At this time, we plan to host fall programs in-person.

Apply Now

Join a Zoom information session – every Tuesday and Wednesday, an APA team member is available to answer your questions and share program details. Sign up for a time slot.

APA has contingency plans in place to adapt to changes in travel. Students should note that a tailored program staying only in France for the semester is plausible if current travel bans remain in effect. Flexible reservation options remain in effect for all programs including 100% deposit refunds in the event that a program is cancelled. Refer to the Ongoing Updates for COVID-19 Response page for more details.

Complete the application form on the Apply webpage. After, you will be prompted to log in to the portal to complete the remaining components:

  • Personal statement
  • Official transcript*
  • University approval
  • 2 recommendation letters (1 from a French professor and 1 from your academic advisor or professor in your major’s department)

Once we’ve received your application, you’ll be contacted for a Zoom interview.

*If you are mailing these items, send them to the US office: Box #17218, 24 Camp Avenue, Stamford, CT 06907.

A note about application fees: Students on full financial aid or who attend an APA-affiliated school can have their application fee waived. A confirmation letter from your institution’s financial aid office should be sent to usa@apaparis.com.

Any Questions?

Eligibility

The ideal APA student is bright and motivated, internationally-minded who seeks a cross-cultural experience and has a desire to experience French and Francophone life.

We know that several factors play into a student’s ability to learn a second language (or third, or fourth!). The number of semesters of college French should be seen as a guideline when determining program eligibility. If you have any concerns, contact us and we will be happy to assist you in in determining your level.
