Review of Central Oregon Community College

from Bend, OR

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

At COCC you learn a lot more then you would at a university because the class sizes are smaller. Since the classes are smaller the teachers have more time to spend with each student and therefore you are able to ask more questions so you can understand the material better. The teachers also like to help the students in every way they can and try to make it so everybody, whether a visual learner or not, can learn the material. I have been a student for a full year and felt that all the classes I took were worth it.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Everybody at the college is really helpful and nice. The teacher especially are fantastic because they sometimes act like one of the kids instead of a teacher. This makes learning more fun and easier. Also the students are great because no matter if you are their friend or not they will help you if you need it. The campus in general is a great place to be.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

I decided to attend COCC instead of OSU for my first two years because the tuition cost are reasonable. At OSU the tuition would have been very expensive but COCC is about right and I could afford everything I needed. Also if you cant afford all the cost COCC is willing to help you so you can go to school and get an education.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Definitely check all you options but COCC is a great place to start because they have lots of options to chose from so you can start your education close to home.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

COCC is perfect for anybody because no matter who you are or what you look like people will accept you.
