Language school Boca Raton, Lynn University Campus (13-17)

School

Our partner school in Boca Raton welcomes students aged between 13 and 17 years and who are not complete beginners in English. It has its premises on the campus of Lynn University, one of the most secure in country, surrounded by almost half a kilometre squared of water and greenery. You have access to the library and the computer room (free Internet) and will enjoy experiencing the typical lifestyle of an American student. Recreational facilities such as swimming pools, sports halls and fields which allow you to play tennis, volleyball, basketball and football are also available every day at specific times. The campus in question is situated 3 kilometres away from the nearest beach and very close to one of Boca Raton's largest shopping centres. Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach and Orlando are also easily accessible.

The English course consists of 20 lessons of 45 minutes per week, at a rate of 2, 3 or 4-week sessions, and sports and cultural activities in the afternoons and at weekends.

Accommodation

Students stay on the campus of Lynn University. In a triple or quadruple room with a private bathroom, you will also have a safe available to you and free Internet access in the computer room. Each block of bedrooms is also equipped with a TV room and games room. A cleaning service and 19 meals per week, eaten at the university cafeteria, are included.

Leisure

An activities programme will be proposed in the afternoons and evenings. Of course, the first days will allow you to get to know the other participants and discover the campus with fun activities such as a treasure hunt and the famous welcome evening. There will also be sport : American football, basketball, swimming or table tennis. In order to complete the programme, cultural activities will be organised: Art café, quizzes, acting classes, talent shows… In the evenings, outings to the cinema or disco parties will be proposed to you. On Sundays, a full-day excursion awaits you, including an excursion to the NASA Kennedy Space Centre or a full day in Miami. On Saturdays, you will be able to opt for an optional full-day activity (to be paid for on-site) to the Walt Disney World Resort, Bush Gardens, the Universal Studios in Orlando… Unless you would prefer to stay on the campus with the other participants. All the activities are supervised by the school staff and are an opportunity to practise English outside of class and, above all, to make new friends from the whole world.

Passport info
If you are of Swiss or European nationality, no visa is necessary to participate in the programme, insofar as you are in possession of a valid biometric passport which is valid for at least six months following your return date, in accordance with current legislation. Nevertheless, students need to get an electronic travel authorisation, to be completed online a minimum of one week prior to departure (credit card necessary to pay for US administration file handling fees). Please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.

Flight info
Boca Raton is a great destination for a language study trip abroad. However, you must know that the journey to get there is relatively long with, generally, one stopover, depending on which city you are flying from. Most airline companies will be able to offer you an accompaniment service; therefore do not hesitate to contact us for further information. It is necessary, however, that the student feels capable of managing this long journey. Then, all he/she has left to do is to enjoy American life!
