The Foundation for Success is a great program for first quarter International Students who want to get a jump-start on the exciting academic and cultural experiences here at GRCC. Your Peer Mentors will share their knowledge of the U.S. education system with you and help you become an active part of the Green River student body. I look forward to meeting with you in this coming fall quarter.
