Course codes at the American Business School Paris are set according to the lower division (100 - 240: Freshman/Sophomore classes) and upper division (300 - 450: Junior/Senior classes) pedagogical classification. These ISA recommendations are intended to facilitate the determination of course equivalencies by advisers and credential evaluators at U.S. home institutions.

It is recommended that you take a French language course through this program if you have not previously completed one semester/quarter of college-level French or the equivalent.
Language Placement

Enrollment in French courses is determined by the results of a language placement exam administered by the American Business School Paris. Please note that your performance on the placement exam may not reflect the number of semesters of language instruction you've already completed at your home university. We strongly suggest that you prepare for the language placement exam by reviewing previous coursework if trying to place into any level of language beyond true beginning.
