College students like the freedom of choosing classes that best suit their needs and requirements when enrolling for classes at their home University. Well now students can pick the intensity of study in France and get credit for it.

College students have the choice of how many lessons per week they wish to enroll in based on their preference. Programs offered in Nice have lessons of 20, 30 or 40 hours per week. The methodology is based on situations described in textbooks or on accompanying audio and video cassettes. Students are asked to hold discussions, express their opinions and give their comments. The aim of each course is to achieve ease and fluency in the use of the language. Intensive courses focus on spoken language and conversation, as well as written language.

Homestays offer students the chance to speak French and take part in family life, which offers another way of learning the language by everyday use. This is the most beneficial way to learn the language outside the classroom. Homestays include breakfast daily, with 2 meals daily available at additional cost. Aparthotel is a single room studio with kitchen & bathroom and student residences are a single room with kitchenette & bathroom, which are offered at an additional cost.

Each week cultural activities, local outings, and excursions are offered to students. The activities give students a chance to experience the cultural and tourist aspects of the city. In addition to the civilization course, a walk or visit to a museum or a monument, is organized each week, and are accompanied by a teacher. Evening activities are various and dynamic depending on student preferences. Dinner at restaurants specializing in Nicoise cuisine, a wine tasting evening with a local specialist, Latin dances, and musical concerts and theatrical performances.
