Abbey Students

The European-American Center for International Education is partnered with top ranked consortium Universities across the United States and Europe. With headquarters located in an extraordinary 1,000-year-old Abbey surrounded by a charming village within the lush setting of the Loire Valley, The Eur-Am Center is developing a full range of humanities, business, and art programs. The Abbey’s historic main building has been renovated and modernized, following a breathtaking design and construction effort made possible by generous subventions from the people and government of France.

It is our vision to facilitate global unification through international education, business pursuits, and the arts. We are dedicated to strengthening cross-cultural relations, encouraging foreign awareness, and promoting international understanding in every domain of human endeavor.
