Live
& study in Paris
Paris is one of Europe’s great academic, cultural and economic capitals, offering a rich environment in which to grow both academically and personally.
You’ll live and study at Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris (CIUP), an international university campus alongside more than 12,000 students from around the world. From sports facilities and cultural events to student initiatives and social activities, campus life offers plenty of opportunities to meet new people, explore your interests and become part of a wider student community.
An International Experience
Beyond Paris
At Forward College, your university experience extends beyond the classroom and beyond borders. You’ll be part of an international community of students from more than 40 nationalities, bringing different perspectives, experiences and cultures together.
The Paris Track also gives you the opportunity to experience life at our other campuses through two one-week international expeditions: Lisbon at the end of Year 1 and Berlin at the end of Year 3. These trips offer a chance to discover new environments, connect with the wider Forward community and experience two more European cities along the way.
FAQ
The Paris Journey is designed for students who want to experience Forward College’s distinctive approach to higher education while spending all three years living and studying in Paris.
You’ll study for a degree designed by the LSE, combining academic rigour with Forward College’s approach to learning.

Forward College brings together students from more than 40 nationalities, creating an international learning environment where you can exchange perspectives, learn from different cultures and build connections across borders.

With its diverse student community, cultural events, associations and sports activities, CIUP offers an opportunity to experience an international environment every day, while making Paris your home for all three years.
The main difference is where you live and study during your degree. On the Paris Journey, you spend all three years in Paris, with international expeditions to Lisbon and Berlin. On the 3 Countries Journey, you move between Lisbon in Year 1, Paris in Year 2 and Berlin in Year 3.
There is no right or wrong choice between the two journeys: it all depends on the experience that best fits your needs and preferences.
The Paris Journey is designed for students who want to experience everything Forward College has to offer – from small-group classes and personalised teaching to a strong international community and a focus on personal development – while spending all three years living and studying in Paris. You can benefit from the full Forward College experience without moving between cities, while still discovering other campuses through international expeditions to Lisbon and Berlin.
The 3 Countries Journey, on the other hand, offers the opportunity to live and study in a different European city each year. Both tracks share the same commitment to academic excellence, personal growth and international perspectives; the difference lies in how you want to experience your university years.
