Students are responsible for their own transportation, hotel accommodations, and meals. Paris’ excellent public transport allows for budget-friendly accommodations outside the city center. We will offer options for students to share rooms to further cut costs.

Book your flights and hotel to arrive in Paris April 20th or the morning of April 21st. Activities will start at 4:00 PM on April 21st. Plan to depart on April 26th or later.

Feel free to extend your stay; we’ll provide a list of optional activities to explore the city. Note that all fees are non-refundable but can be transferred between SHA students, programs, and events. Some activities may vary based on availability.

We’ll stay in the city center of Paris to be close to most activities. We will meet at a central hotel most days, and many students may choose to stay there as well. We'll send the hotel's details and address after you reserve your spot. You are free to book accommodations anywhere you prefer—our suggestions are simply for convenience and our meeting point.

We will also offer the option for students to pair up and share rooms to help reduce costs as the program date approaches.

Your Study Abroad ticket includes the Sexceptional Weekend: Sexuality Around the World with Justin Lehmiller and Expert Guest lecturers. We highly recommend you to attend live online. If you can not, please let us know and plan to watch the recording later as this will be part of your course CEs. We highly encourage all study abroad students to be there. (Zoom links will be sent after you register).

There are no pre-requisites required for the course. We welcome all students regardless of profession or courses completed. We often have students from all over the world including but not limited to: Sex nerds or enthusiasts, sex therapists or coaches, sexual health practitioners or educators, researchers, academic professors, medical doctors, certified and non-certified students and more! You do not need to be a SHA student or member to attend! But, we're sure you will be forever a SHA fan at the end of the program! You'll also most likely be Justin's new bff! ;)

Yes! Many of our students will attend more than one program. Each program offers different experiences, insights and perspectives. Some will even travel together between cities if the dates line up. Come to all of them!
