Dear Sir or Madam,
Dear Students
You are about to begin on your studies at the Institute of French Studies, a faculty of the University Aix-Marseille III - Paul Cézanne. I would like to wish you briefly, in the name of the teaching and managing staff, a wonderful experience in Aix.
Our Institute is proud to have contributed for more than half a century to the education and training of several generations of students.
This longevity is the best possible proof of a rich past, and gives all hopes for the future. This place is going to become your home for a few months and I am certain that your living and working conditions will make up for the distance which will separate you from your family and friends.
Be sure that we will do our best to help you during your stay, in order to give you the opportunity to make the most of your studies and get a deeper knowledge of the language and the culture of our country.
The teaching and managing staff are ready and eager to provide any information or help about any difficulty that you could meet in your student's life as well as in your other daily occupations.
Welcome in Aix-en-Provence, in France ! Welcome in the Institute of French Studies for Foreign Students!
Richard Ghevontian, head of the I.E.F.E.E
