Green River Cc Development Ct

This school is an absolute joke. I was a student here for two years (2023-2025) after already receiving a bachelor’s and a master’s from other institutions and I can tell you without a doubt the leadership and support staff at this school are the worst I have ever had the displeasure of interacting with. Almost every department is understaffed. Do not let their website fool you. This institution does not embody any of the values they preach in their mission statement. It is all for show to get your money. As of this review, I still have not received my diploma because I am waiting on them to process paperwork that should have been completed months ago and I’m probably going to have to pay more money because of their complacency. The relatively low cost may seem attractive but you are better off paying a little bit more to receive a quality education. If you are a veteran please stay away from this place because they will take your money and provide you with nothing you expect.

Miss green river college life! If you get involved with clubs, attend your classes, connect with others, you’ll have a great time here.

I was a student here for two years (2023-2025) right after graduating high school and have since transferred to a 4-year university out of state. In my experienced, I faced extremes at this school, both good and bad. The professors (mostly) were incredible and had a passion for teaching, many opportunities for students (including but not limited to: summer internships, study abroad, clubs, and sports), and the campus is gorgeous. However, that's pretty much it for the good things. The student body here is stuck up an cold, there is zero student life, and non-teaching staff are a joke. Many advisors are not helpful whatsoever and I fell behind because of conflicting things of what my advisor was saying. It's a good school for those who just want to get their AA and go, but if you want to make the most of a college experience while at CC, i suggest going to somewhere like Highline, Pierce, and Shoreline.

Dear Green River College President, I am writing to formally report the deeply upsetting and unprofessional behavior I experienced from your college phone operator and financial aid representative. When I called to discuss my financial aid and enrollment, I shared that my father had recently passed away. The phone operator responded with a dismissive “oh well,” and transferred the phone to financial aid representative told me it was “not her problem” before abruptly hanging up on me. This treatment is completely unacceptable and insensitive. I expected support and understanding during a very difficult time, but instead, I was met with callousness that has left me questioning my decision to pursue my degree at Green River College. If this is the level of care students receive when facing personal crises, it raises serious concerns about how the college values its students. I urge you to personally review this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that no other student is treated with such blatant disregard and disrespect.

If you apply here and decide to not go they will place a hold on your CTClink to “verify” your identity. So you can’t register for classes anywhere until you drive to the college to show your id. I went over zoom and showed my id and they still never took it off. Absolutely ridiculous policy, if I’m not going there why do I need to show my id and submit documents as to why I can’t drive there just to still not go there?
