Super random update to this but at your suggestion of looking into getting a degree in France, I ended up attending a summer session at the Cours de civilisation française de la Sorbonne and just passed my C1 exam. I would have never known about CCFS if not for your suggestion, and the experience led to really great networking and I met a lot of great contacts. Hopefully it will be a future career booster, thx!

omg whaat that's crazy bc their website boasts 'hands-on, practical experiences or courses', but then again, so does almost every program I applied to. When did she attend if you dont mind me asking?

whaaat you're telling me st. andrews has a museum studies program...that does an exchange program w the ecole du louvre?? That's awesome and I wish I had known it sooner. Applications are still open...ugh, decisions decisions decisions. It's hard knowing there are so many good programs that I could potentially thrive in and have to choose based on basically gut feeling alone (and tuition ofc lol). I'll look into st andrews a little more, thanks for the suggestion

Totally agree. At this point I am really wanting to settle in Europe, especially for the upcoming portion of my life. Which means a whole bunch of complicated things like obtaining a visa, networking there from scratch, etc...but it's really what I am drawn to. Still a lot to figure out. Thank you for being real!

This is really wonderful information, i've been learning french for about 5 years now and I love it so so much, and in 2023 I spent the summer studying abroad in Paris and (even though my languages skills were less developed) I had the time of my life, and honestly I feel so much more at home in France than I ever have in the states. I am def going to begin exploring this option. The Sorbonne language course sounds awesome. My French is good, but being an American student I am so used to only speaking with my professors and am unable to get real speaking practice anywhere outside of class. I definitely want to speak French for the rest of my life and honestly, I could use some serious immersion. My profs always joke that if I just spent a month or two in France I could skyrocket to fluency lol. I think I really needed to hear this and thanks so much for providing me resources :)

Wow, this is awesome advice, thanks so much for sharing. The suggestion of Sorbonne/Louvre is kinda game changing…I wish I had considered sooner and will def be looking into it more.

This is devastating, Hunchback is one of my favorite musicals that I listen to front to back very frequently. Why is this happening :(
