Grossmont College offers an opportunity for students and community members to experience Paris for four weeks, as the second part of a six-week summer program in French and art history beginning June 13 on the El Cajon college campus.

Taught by Grossmont College French instructor David Milroy and Professor of Art History Dr. Marion de Koning, the program will offer the opportunity for students to earn up to eight college credits. While in France for four weeks June 24-July 25, students will live in apartments in Paris, visit four nearby castles, and experience a two-day excursion to the Loire Valley and the chateaux of the French Renaissance.

According to Grossmont College President Dr. Ted Martinez, Jr., “We are pleased to be able to resume these vibrant study abroad opportunities for the Grossmont College community, further enriching the academic experience we provide here on campus.”

Students who are California residents will pay enrollment fees of $26/unit for class credits. The study abroad portion of the program will cost $3,999, which includes round-trip airfare, housing in Paris, and the castle and Loire Valley excursions. Parents and others who may wish to participate will have the option to enroll in the coursework on a credit/no-credit basis.
