Great staff and counseling
Overall 4.5
I absolutely love the campus. Everyone's very close together and all the professors are extremely helpful.
Overall 4.4
Campus is wonderful. Need help? Ask for it! Teachers, students, and staff are very willing to help. Got a problem? Then speak up, others cannot read your mind. Very social, luncheons and activities organized for each week basically. Childcare is also provided (for a fee), which is awesome for the little ones. Cafeteria food is AMAZING!!
Overall 4.2
The professors here are better than my old college. Way better. They also have tons of activities to do. And it really boosts morale especially during finals week. The only problem I had was with recording, but misunderstanding happen. this college is great!

Overall 4.1
I absolutely loved my time at Odessa College, the people were friendly, made a great group of friends and joined clubs that I would have never even imagined being a part of. Professors are helpful and make you feel that you are a person not just a body in their class. This is school is great and I am extremely happy to say that I graduated from OC!

Did not get any help at all! It took a month of me nagging to get some to help me register once they did the advisior didn't even bother calling me to go over a degree plan or talk to me at all. I have no access to student e-mail or the online billing... worst process ever.

This is a prime example of what a community college offers. Some professors think that since they are educators there that are very egocentric. There are a few that are excellent educators.
