are abroad. We advise you to take out comprehensive medical and personal insurance
for illness, accident and hospitalization. The school cannot be held responsible
for accidents or illness during your enrollment.

We advise you to travel on any airline of your choice. Although it is impossible
at this writing to know if direct flights from the U.S. to Nice Airport will

transportation connections.
