A Week in the Life of an Evergreen Student
Our students say that one of the best aspects of Evergreen's unique curriculum is having variety and flexibility in their schedules.
Unlike traditional college schedules of lectures and labs that can quickly grow monotonous, Evergreen programs create a balance between seminars, hands-on learnings and off-campus exploration. You'll stay engaged and energized as you build familiarity within the disciplines that you study. You'll have time to gather after class to work on a collaborative project with a small group of your fellow students. Your program may have special activities like a weeklong field trip.
Here's an example of what your week in one, full-time program might look like:
