Tests for College Applications

After taking the decision to study in the US, you will have to get ready to take a few tests in order to apply for College.

The SAT is mandatory for anyone who would like to go to College in the US, any student (American or International) graduating from High School has to take that test to get admitted. As for the TOEFL or TOEIC, only International students have to take it to prove that their English is good enough to follow in class.

Here is a description of each test. Read it thoroughly and start training for the test as soon as possible!

College Applications

Any student willing and able to study abroad will find a suitable place at one of more than 3000 American colleges and universities

First, you must have a clear idea of what you wish to study and where in the US you would like to be located. There are also financial considerations to take into account, as studying in the US can be expensive and varies enormously from institution to institution. Field of study, geography and cost will help you narrow your selection.

A Year in Wyoming

Here is the story of my year as an exchange student at the University of Wyoming.
Never thought I would spend quite some time there...but it turned out to be one of the best experiences in my life!

Lindy-Hop Evening, February 20th

Check out the photos of the Lindy-Hop Evening organized at the Château de Pourtalès on February 20th.

Lindy-Hop Evening, February 20th

The evening was great fun. A great turn-out with 20 French students and 15 Americans. We are sorry we had to turn students down, but the nature of the event made it necessary to limit the participants so we would all still be able to move around without getting too many bruises! 

Special thanks to College Swing (Jérôme and Véronique), to Gabi and Kira from CEPA for helping us organize the event and to all the students who were amazing good sports (and super special thanks also to the Humber and Georgia State students who stayed and helped clean up afterwards).

We hope that the music and Lindy, the beautiful place and the incomparable atmosphere have helped make connections. 

Looking forward to seeing you all again for a movie night in March.

Swingingly,

Petra and Justine
