Semester and Year Exchanges
Eastern Michigan University students may attend ICN for one or two semesters for a cost equivalent to the costs at Eastern Michigan University. Students pay for EMU tuition and fees, plus a modest program and service fees. The courses taken at ICN appear on the EMU transcript as EMU courses with a study abroad designation.
Located in the northeast of France, 1.5 hours from Paris, ICN offers undergraduate programs taught in both English and French. With prior approval, the business courses can be used to satisfy EMU degree requirements, as well as the International Business major's study abroad requirement.
