I'm curious about how successful Green River College students are at transferring to four-year universities. Does anyone know what the transfer rate is like, especially to schools in Washington?
Green River College has an impressive transfer rate. While the specific statistics fluctuate from year to year, it's known for being one of the top community colleges in Washington State for university transfers. Specifically, a large portion of Green River students successfully transfer to in-state institutions, such as the University of Washington, Washington State University, and Western Washington University, among others.
That said, the exact transfer rate can vary depending on several factors, including the student's field of study, academic performance, and the specific requirements of the four-year institution they're applying to. If you're a current or prospective Green River College student interested in transferring, I'd recommend working closely with the college's advisors. They can provide guidance tailored to your specific goals and circumstances.
Additionally, Green River College runs a University Transfer Pathway (UTP) which has partnerships with universities in the US and around the world, where you can start at Green River and then transfer to a four-year university to complete your bachelor's degree. This pathway might be significant for your successful transfer plan.
