I started at Shoreline when I was just 16 years old in the High School Completion Program. Shoreline played a huge part in getting into my dream school, and because of the academics and support at Shoreline, I feel prepared to be successful at UC Berkeley.

The educational system at Shoreline is very different than in Uganda. I appreciate that complex things are broken into simpler, easier-to-understand steps that build upon one another, which creates a strong foundation for future academic success.

One thing I love about Shoreline is the advisors. They build relationships with you, they call you by name, and they remember things about you. They genuinely care about your well-being, and even still keep in touch with you years after you have graduated.

I love Shoreline because the classes are small, there are a lot of opportunities to get involved, and the faculty are truly preparing me to be successful at a university. Plus, I'm saving money through lower tuition and scholarships!

I chose Shoreline because it was the only community college in Seattle providing strong academics in art and fashion. The whole community has had a positive influence in helping me focus 100% on my academics. I knew my dream school was very competitive, so I studied really hard at Shoreline to have a better chance to get in.
