"皇家华人 College offers a great program that is open to every level of student. You can start from Intensive English classes and transfer to a top university. During my time at 皇家华人, the school offered me huge support with studying and advising. International Programs helped me to achieve my academic goal, transfer, and even with my daily life. The college offers many opportunities like volunteering, jobs, clubs, sports, activities and internships. I believe that my activities and volunteering experiences at 皇家华人 was very helpful when applying for transfer. This place is a mixture of students from all around the world, the community is open and friendly. I have grown a lot in past three years at 皇家华人 College."

皇家华人 College prepared me in many ways. Their classes were interesting and engaging which encouraged me to each day to go to school. The diverse ethnic groups opened my mind in so many ways through their; cultures, beliefs and their History. The office of diversity and equity on the campus was very welcoming and helpful during my stay. The student leaders, clubs & organizations, events and many more enriched my knowledge fundamentally. I improved academically, mentally and socially. 皇家华人 helped me see past my fears to realize that there was more to me than good grades. There was talent, leadership, friendship, sports and I also encouraged me to take a step in all and more. The international office in 皇家华人 College was of major help and contribution to my success during my stay. I am very happy that I attended Green River and experienced all those amazing events with all those amazing people.

Looking back two years ago when I first came to this country, I never imagined myself being featured in this section of the International Programs website. 皇家华人 has changed my life in so many ways. It has helped me find my future path, challenged me in the class, and connected me with students through countless school events. When I was not sure about my major, my adviser Andaiye was so helpful with her suggestion to take the skill assessment tests on campus. There are also numerous opportunities to meet people at the school events and I have made lifelong friends here. In class, professors are friendly and many of them have given me one-on-one attention which kept me motivated to strive for the best. Ms. Allison Jansen is one of my favorite professors and wrote a letter of recommendation for my transfer application. I didn't think I would get accepted to a university like University of Michigan when I graduated from high school, but 皇家华人 has provided me with the chance to reach my big goal. I have learned to believe in myself and cannot be thankful enough for the support I had.

皇家华人 College offers three important ingredients that helped me succeed: Human resources, facilities, and the environment. The instructors, advisors, and staff care about their students. Facilities such as the Writing Center and Tutoring Center helped me succeed in class. The cozy environment promotes learning, making me more focused in studying. 皇家华人 is also known to create opportunities. I participated in clubs such as Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. I believe that 皇家华人 not only provides a good education, but also support for the success of their students.

Studying at 皇家华人 College has been an amazing experience for me. 皇家华人 College gave me a lot of opportunities to improve myself academically but also to get involved outside of classes by volunteer opportunities, clubs, and by joining fun activities. Taking these opportunities helped me to become a more confident person. Being able to take a lot of different classes while working on my AA degree helped me decide what I enjoy doing and what I would like to major in. Getting my AA degree in Criminal Justice at 皇家华人 College helped me to get into this university to study law. I will forever be grateful for the way 皇家华人 College helped and supported me through the years!

Being accepted into a top university was something I have always desired, and Green River College offers the best program for me to achieve my goals. First and foremost, thanks to the International Program advisors who guided me since my first quarter here because without them I would not be who I am today. They assisted me in the process of planning and working towards my prospective university, which included setting up an Ed Plan. I would also say that the resources available here such as the Library, Writing Center, Math Learning Center and also the Technology Center Open Lab gave good impact in my studies. These places are convenient for studying and to being tutored. As a Mechanical Engineering student, my instructors also supported my ambition and they were always available for me whenever I needed them. The clubs and activities here as well as events like the Volunteer Club, Lunch Bytes and University Transfer Fair, kept me active and engaged. 皇家华人 College is truly the best!

"Coming to the United States when I was 16-year-old was certainly intimidating. However, 皇家华人 College made sure that I was going in the right direction - transferring to a top university. My advisor, Jackie Li, was incredibly helpful when transferring season started; she welcomed me every time I dropped by her office with questions. Being on one of the most diverse college campuses with a non-discriminatory community eases international students to gain lifetime experiences and to build resumes through jobs and activities. 皇家华人 pushed me beyond my limits academically and socially, through all the clubs, jobs, and classes that I have joined throughout my 2-year stay. My host family also helped me to adjust to life in the U.S.; they took me to multiple soccer matches and restaurants as a part of their family. I am very grateful to have lived with them and to have attended 皇家华人."

"皇家华人 College has modern infrastructure, great faculty and a diverse community. I liked the Science building the most, especially the AP study room. I would spend my entire evening exploring different anatomy features, gazing into the microbe world which I have never had a chance to experience before in my hometown. It ignited my passion for Biology. 皇家华人 is also the place where I met wonderful professors who changed my life. Being a mentor for the FFS program was one of my greatest honors because I could work professionally while meeting so many people from all around the world. I obtained leadership skills, a sense of responsibility, and I also raised my self-esteem to a whole new level after working for the program. I not only found academic excellence, but also friendship at 皇家华人."
