Middlebury: Studies in Paris Program
Through Middlebury College, Whitman students of French language can enroll in courses across several disciplines at Le Centre Madeleine, the headquarters of the Middlebury School in France, as well as in one of several partner institutions in Paris.
“I ended up learning a lot about the French culture, improving my French skills drastically, and really exploring how another country formats their educational system. The professors were generally very kind to foreign students, and really made sure that we understood the lessons, and gave us extra supplemental readings to catch us up with the other students.” - Olivia B. ‘17
