When can I go ?
The school opens every day of the year and Montpellier is beautiful no matter the season. In the winter, the climate is nice enough for a long enjoyable walk along the quiet and deserted beach or in the vineyards nearby. In the Summer, if suntanning by the mediterranean sea is not your thing, you can choose to take a dip in one of the lakes nearby or stay cool in one of the many museums, or air conditionned building of the school. All our classrooms have air conditionning, we also have a nice patio by our ressource centre where you can study outside in the shade with your friends from school or enjoy a nice break from studying. Many excursions are planned all year round.
Specific starting dates for beginners are published here : https://www.accentfrancais.com/prices
Where will I be staying ?
At Accent Français we have the accommodation that suits your needs. You can stay with a host family (this is the most popular choice). All our families are chosen with the greatest care. This is the perfect way to find out what makes french people special, how they live and the traditions they respect. Cherry on the cake, you can also choose how many meals you want to share with your family if any (half board or full board are available).
If you would rather be autonomous you can also choose to stay in an independant studio, a studio or flat in a tourist or student residence or a room on campus for a more economical option. We will also help you book a hotel if this is your desired choice. No matter your budget, we have the accommodation for you.
