I brag about all the school and Bellingham has to offer. Everyone is really friendly. The professors are always willing to help and to put extra time in order for you to do better and understand the subject. You are also only an hour and a half from Seattle, and about an hour from Vancouver. But Bellingham is absolutely beautiful, right on the Pacific Bay. There is a ton of activities to join on the school, and lots of options if you are outdoorsy. All in all, everyone is really nice and its really fun.
