We want you to be recognized for the time, effort, and growth you experience during your year abroad! By taking the FR475 (French Internship) course offered through Pacific University and taught by Andégo staff with visiting faculty status at Pacific, you can earn 4 upper-division semester credits that can be transferred to another school.

Credits can satisfy degree requirements or be general elective credits at your school.

There is no need to apply or be accepted to Pacific. Simply being a participant in Andégo's program to France makes you eligible.

Please contact gapyear@andego.org for more details.

The Course:

• This asynchronous course rewards you academically for what you are already doing in your internship.  There are no classes to attend or materials to purchase.

• You will submit bi-monthly reflections on your experience in the classroom, a language-education research paper, and record yourself delivering a lesson all aimed at helping your grow while you reflect on your experience in the classroom.

Tuition Cost:

For non-Pacific students (credits to be transferred to another school):

• 4 credits ($900) or 8 credits ($1,800) for French 475 are available during your internship.
