Advice for students thinking about coming to AUP or going abroad for college

If you think you are interested in going abroad, whether for a shorter study abroad trip or for the duration of your studies, DO IT! There are innumerable life lessons to be learned from studying or living abroad, and if you can successfully live in another country where you don’t speak the language natively, then you can make it anywhere.   

One French word or phrase everyone should learn

Pâtisserie or pastry shop, because la vache there are so many tasty things inside.

Favorite thing about AUP

I love the concept of Paris as a classroom; higher education is obviously rooted in academics, but living in Paris with a small cohort of peers provides such an amazing opportunity for students to make friends and learn a lot about themselves.
