The University has a free and obligatory e-mail system, for all students. Students are assigned an e-mail account with this system.

 

Your address will be firstname.lastname@ac.aup.fr (e.g., carol.smith@ac.aup.fr).

You must go to the AUP Computer Lab during the week of Orientation in order to get the password to your account and to activate it. Please do this as soon as you arrive, as your professors, University offices and fellow students will be sending mail to you at this account.

Telephoning

 

Most AUP students obtain their own telephones, from France Telecom, once they have moved into their new home. The University sells international prepaid calling cards, which provide very favorable telephone rates that can significantly reduce the cost of your international phone calls. As well, you may choose to arrive in Paris with a long-distance calling card from your local telephone company, providing reduced rates in comparison with those of France-Telecom for long distance/international calls. Contact your local telecom company for more information and be sure to obtain the toll free access number for France.

 

Most students today, now choose to obtain a cellular phone when they arrive in Paris. A wide selection of cellular phones and services are available in France and information will be provided at Orientation.

 

 
 

Internet access from home

 

Many students have personal computers with which to work from home. Internet access is readily available throughout Paris from a variety of Internet service providers.

 

The University also has a wireless network in most of its buildings. Students with their own laptop, equipped with wireless network access card, can connect to the internet through the network.

 

If you already have an internet service provider, verify if they have a French access number. If not the staff of the University computer labs can provide you with information about obtaining such services.
