Safety:
Every student who participates on a GLA program becomes part of the GLA family. Since we only want what’s best for our family, our primary concern is safety. We take great care in providing our family a safe, comfortable environment to explore and develop leadership. Our staff, with many years of combined experience working on successful international student programs, makes sure that its GLA family is safe. To find out more about our safety policies and procedures please contact us or visit our website.
Campus:
In all locations you will live on the campus of one of the best boarding schools in town. During your free time, join a game of basketball or just cool off in the pool with your new friends and swap stories about your day.
Students live in gender-segregated residence halls. You’ll share a room with 2 to 3 roommates.
Earning College Credit:
Global Leadership Adventures has partnered with Seattle Central Community College to allow students to earn college credit during the GLA program. Please contact us or visit our website to find out more.
