Supervision

HiF operates under the supervision of Hamilton's Department of French and Francophone Studies and the office of Global Education, in consultation with the Academic Council of Hamilton College. HiF  is fully accredited and periodically reviewed by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.

Hamilton College French professors, and occasional guest faculty/directors from other Liberal Arts Colleges, direct the program on a rotating basis. The resident director in Paris is in permanent contact with Hamilton to ensure that Hamilton standards, philosophy and policies are maintained. Supporting each director is a team of professionals from the United States and France who have substantial experience in international undergraduate education. 

HiF also requires its students to register with the American Embassy in Paris immediately upon arrival.

Note that HiF  is one of the founding members of the Association de Programmes Américains en France (APUAF), whose role is to monitor unusual situations in France, and provides broad information and guidelines for all US programs in France.
