OC offers a range of different programs to meet any needs (even including 4yr programs now). The staff is so kind and helpful. I have never been more motivated for class until now

I’ve had nothing but support from the first tour to my second term which is current. Skip online classes in things you’re not strong in, and maybe just in general. It’s better to be with the humans and give the teachers the chance to actually teach. If you want to learn, you will. Can’t beat the price as well.

I love O.C.! The professors so far have been amazing! The campus is pretty large, and security is visible.

I genuinely love this school. I feel like the faculty and staff are very kind and helpful. The teachers are all wonderful. Whenever I walk in the main building, they always have flyers up or on the desk with things to do, stuff to offer. The campus overall is very safe and I have had no issues when I speak with Financial Aid or any teachers.

Olympic is very walkable! The Wi-Fi, library, computer labs, and tutoring centers are great. The food is not the best or the cheapest. Students would love a subway or something similar. I have also greatly enjoyed this school's events, activities, and clubs. Most importantly, I loved all the teachers and other staff at the school!

It's a safe, compact campus that feels large! Busy surrounding commuter transport can be annoying, however, there is a large number of small eateries for any taste.

Out of 12 teachers I had during my courses of study, 2 may need some training however the 10 others did a phenomenal job of teaching. What they said and what they graded upon was spot on accurate. I enjoyed my overall degree program and the school overall. The schools diversity program and the faculty members seems to project inclusiveness.

It isn't what they've advertised and I was truly disappointed. I'm not going back to this college after this semester. I'm going somewhere else where they'd have some more accessible and more activities going on around the campus.

Probably the worst school in all of Washington. Class options are terrible, teachers are either completely hands off, or extremely hostile and rude. (most of them have no idea what they're doing) Good luck getting a degree, or even learning anything at all. This school is a joke, inside and out.

It shouldn't take someone 7 years to get a 2-year degree on all the school wants to do is treat you like a cash cow. And never give you support or the help you need.
Overall 1.9
Administrative staff are unpleasant, they seem as they don't want to help. Lose everything and "Can't find it". Also, financial aid is the same thing, probably because they are one in the same.
Overall 1.9
Don't expect them to be helpful. There is little to no communication between offices. I would not suggest getting married while going to school here because changing your name they will probably lose half of your information because they do not change things over properly.

Some great teachers and some nit to good. Did not get the support I needed in harder classes. Not enough tutoring or one on one
