Dear reader,
We hope that you've been considering your study abroad options over the summer if you're not already studying abroad. Now is a great time to be planning for a spring study abroad experience in the coming year. And, if the recent Pixar film Ratatouille has you hankering for Paris, you'll be sure to want to read our France feature this month to explore the great study abroad opportunities there. If you're not quite sure where to get started, our Student Guide provides information on a range of helpful topics. Cheers, Kim IIEPassport Product Manager CEA - Global Education Solutions Engineering Program in the French Riviera
Featured Country of the Month: France Featured Sponsor: Truman State University 
It is easy to understand why France is consistently one of the top study abroad destinations for American students. Located in the heart of Europe with an abundance of history and culture and top notch universities, not to mention world-renowned cuisine, France has appealed to study abroad students for decades. France also shares borders with Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Monaco and Andorra, making it a strategic destination for students anxious to explore other parts of Europe. Paris, France's revered capital, is the obvious destination for students seeking a French cosmopolitan experience. One of the largest economies in the world, with undeniable political clout, the City of Light offers numerous opportunities for study abroad students. Paris also boasts the largest concentration of university students in Europe with over 600,000 students enrolled in higher education. Students seeking a less-urban experience, should consider studying in Strasbourg, the City of Roads. Despite being the capital of Alsace and home to three important European Institutions-the Council of Europe, the European Court of Human Rights, and the European Parliament, Strasbourg maintains a small, university town feel. Students studying geography and geology will find the diverse landscape of France fascinating, with its sedimentary basins and lowlands, and especially the Hercynian mountain blocks which are remnants of ancient mountains.
