US Citizens Living Overseas: High School Completion Program

Please try to identify students who are US citizens living overseas as early as possible in the recruitment process. Let us know so that we can inform them of their options. One important note is that US citizens must be 19 years or older to be eligible for Green River’s High School Completion. US citizens younger than 19 are directed to enroll in a local high school where they will receive free public education.

English Proficiency Requirement: Change in IELTS

In order to support student success, we reviewed our accepted English Proficiency Requirements and decided to modify our accepted IELTS score. We now accept: IELTS of 5.5 with no band lower than 4.5.
