"I had no clue what I wanted to study before my Gap Year at Green River College. I took a lot of science classes and am now interested in chemistry and the environment. Student Life activities were amazing. I was able to explore more of Washington State. My favorites were all the hikes. It was great to be out in nature. I also enjoyed the Boeing factory, skiing Crystal Mountain, professional ice hockey and baseball games, and the Stadium High School football game. During President's Day weekend I went with friends to Vancouver, B.C. and spring break I went to San Francisco. I also enjoyed Campus Corner Apartments. I learned how to live on my own, do my own laundry, buy food and cook."

"Green River College helped me achieve my goal of being accepted into Copenhagen Business School. I had the opportunity to take the classes I needed and they offered a wide variety of options. The staff were very helpful and accommodating and they made the transition into a different school system much easier and accessible for me. I am very grateful for my stay at Green River College. The 6 months I spent there have contributed immensely to my life, both academically and socially."

"Taking aviation classes at Green River College not only confirmed that I was walking down the right path, but also gave me a broad understanding of what I had to consider when looking for flight schools in Germany. I was fairly certain I wanted to be a pilot before my Gap Year. However, coming to Green River just confirmed this."

"I absolutely loved my time at Green River College! The GAP-year program is such a great program and perfect for a break between high school and university. I have grown really attached to this place and the people that came with it. I have made so many friends from all over the world and I know when I travel to these places, I will always have a place to stay. I know that I lot of the friends I made here are friends that I will stay in touch with and will keep close for the rest of my life!"

"I learned a lot during my year at Green River. Because of classes like drama and public speaking, I became a more confident person. However, I think that the programs and activities Green River College offers in addition to classes, is what really makes it stand out from all the other Gap Year programs. I attended the college for three full quarters, without ever getting bored. "
