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

Available placement regions in France :

Hauts-de-France : Lille, Amiens, Cambrai, Roubaix.
Bourgogne – Franche Comté : Besançon, Lons-le-Saunier, Mâcon, Chalon-sur-Saône.

Program

Students are assigned to either public or private schools. They will attend school five days a week, usually from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm, sharing classes with French peers.

Based on their age, students will be placed in Troisième (14-15 years old) or Seconde (15-16 years old). They typically study subjects such as French literature, foreign languages, history, math, economics, and science. Students placed in Classe of Première and Terminale (16 to 18 years old) will be able to express their preferences for French major subjects. All classes are taught in French.
