鈥�I would have spent the first semester in Boulder isolated and alone, learning the ropes in a new town, but because of the bridge program, before school even started I had a strong network of friends and people to turn to. I still hang out with and have a group chat with almost every member of the bridge program.鈥� 鈥揟im H., 2017 Program Participant
