Off-campus Study Options

The French department encourages its majors to spend some time abroad, and to that end it has instituted an exchange program in France with the Université de Rennes II and several campuses of the Université de Paris. The work a student completes abroad in these approved programs is credited toward the Reed degree, and students on financial aid may apply their aid toward the costs.
