Student life at IESA Arts & Culture in Paris is a rich blend of creativity, collaboration, and cultural immersion. The school is centrally located in a vibrant, artistic neighbourhood, giving students easy access to cafés, galleries, artisan shops, and street art. IESA emphasises real-world experience, with students encouraged to intern throughout their studies and supported by a dedicated internship office linked to major cultural institutions, galleries, theatres, and media partners. Students also engage in artistic projects, exhibitions, workshops, and cultural events organised by the school, while associations and clubs provide opportunities to collaborate, network, and explore personal creative interests.

In September 2025, IESA joined the Le Delta campus, a 16,000 m² multidisciplinary site shared with other grandes écoles. The campus features four auditoriums (including one dedicated to IESA), two sound studios and a podcast studio, a heritage-listed library, gallery spaces, a panoramic terrace, landscaped gardens, and a dedicated “safe space” for student well-being. This modern, collaborative environment offers an inspiring setting for both academic and creative pursuits.
