Subject:French Institute in Damascus response

Hello,

The University of Durham has been sending students there for many  
years, and the experiences have, on the whole, been extremely  
positive. The course is challenging, but delivers the goods, with a  
high level of instruction. I have to say that it is currently a bit  
less popular than  the University of Damascus, which may in part be  
due to the fact that IFEAD (or IFPO, as it is more properly known  
these days) imposes an entry test, which seems to put some students  
off. I should also add that the fees at IFEAD are higher (but by no  
means prohibitive) than at University of Damascus.
Best,

D. Newman
