I am Canadian and planning to go to south america beginning in September for about 6 months. Since my Spanish is not the best, I was thinking about taking spanish courses in Academia Uruguay for few weeks. I see that you just began courses there. It would be great if you could tell me how it is? Sometimes, it looks great on Internet but it is not as great when we arrive on place, so it is always usefull to have comments from people being actually there! I saw they have a program with volunteer work + spanish courses, is it what you are doing? Many thanks in advance for your help! Best regards Vick Hello Holly,

I have spent the past several years traveling and living in Portland, my home-town, but recently have felt the desire to learn, and have always had my eye on Evergreen. I am 23 years old, and would be starting at Evergreen in the 2010-2011 school yr as some of the deadlines have already passed. I would love to get a chance to speak with you and get more perspective from a successful student at Evergreen. Thanks for your time, Christine Hey Holly,

Right now I go to school at South Seattle Community College adn am taking a Spanish class. I was wondering if you might find some time to speak with me about the admissions process to Evergreen? I konw you were a transfer student (from the page with your studies information on it), and I think I will be consicidered a freshman studant come the 2009-2010 school year. I was wondering what your starting process was, as it seems like a lot to me. Thank you in advanced for your time. Buenas dias! Erin My name is Erin and I am a prospective student at Evergreen.

I was a student in the Waldorf school system, K-12. The system is set up very much like that of Evergreens where grades dont exsist but instead you have teachers write in detale what you've done over the past semester. This to me I think is so much more helpfull as a student then one letter grade, that letter doesent say anything about what you have really done. This is why I love Evergreens system so much because I know for a fact it's not only the best way to learn it's the only way. ~Joe I cant tell you much I enjoyed reading this blog.
