Paris, France

Study in the vibrant city of Paris, France at a college shaped by the city’s rich artistic legacy and global creative community. Through an exchange semester in partnership with Paris College of Art (PCA), you’ll join a community of emerging artists, designers, photographers, and creative thinkers from more than 50 countries, where diverse perspectives inspire innovation and collaboration. Guided by faculty who are active leaders in the creative industries, you will engage with the disciplines of art, design, and culture while living and learning in one of the world’s most inspiring capitals.

Study, Create, and Live like a Parisian

Located alongside the banks of the iconic River Seine, Paris College of Art places you in a creative hub filled with studios, galleries, theaters, cafés, and cultural landmarks just steps away from the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Élysées.

On campus, you’ll learn in professional-grade facilities designed for hands-on making and experimentation, including fashion ateliers, printmaking and photography labs, sculpture studios, digital media spaces, an amphitheater, gallery, and light-filled classrooms. Outside your classes, you’ll live in fully furnished Parisian apartments and study alongside French and international students focusing on art, design, and film.

At PCA, your education moves fluidly between the studio, city, and community, and you’ll emerge with a global creative perspective shaped by hands-on making, cultural immersion, and collaboration across disciplines.
