Out-of-town students… did you know even though we are located on an island, there are several ways to easily get here? You can fly into SeaTac airport and take a shuttle service to Coupeville, or rent a car and drive here via a short but scenic ferry, or take a stunning and scenic drive south from Fidalgo Island over an historic bridge at Deception Pass.
