She was gone for 6 weeks, the summer after her sophomore year. It was very safe; the program (I don't remember the name, it was not run by Yale, but Yale approved it - I can find out from D if you're interested) housed the students in an apartment-hotel on the Right Bank. Program personnel also lived there, and you had to show ID at the front desk to get in.
She shared a studio apartment with another girl and they had a private bath, a kitchen, free internet access, and amazingly, air conditioning (which is very unusual for France). D walked or took the Metro to the Sorbonne every day and learned how to cook on a recalcitrant French stove.
