REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingAt Owens the teachers really strive for you to be at your best. They help as much as they can, and because they've usually worked in the field they're teaching, you can learn many things from them. I'm in my second year here and feel like I've learned more than I thought possible at the Community College level.
Dana from Rossford, OH
How well the class is taught depends on the teacher and varies greatly. Many classes put up notes in a powerpoint format, and in order to fully learn the material you have to study and make sense of the notes given. This especially applies to science classes. Also, if you struggle with understand the information in class, it really helps to read throught the examples given in the book. It is also helpful to do homework, even if it isn't assigned because it helps you to grasp the concept. This especially applies to math classes.
Valerie from Toledo, OH
Classroom ratios are nice. Most classes were 1 teacher to 10 students. Teachers were all very helpful and accommodating. The course was laid out well and every aspect was clear and covered in class.
Anthony from Pandora, OH
Owens Community College has wonderful teachers that use technology and in-classroom time to blend the way we learn. Easy application process with easy registration for classes, helped me work my schedule around my son's. Parking can be an issue but I'm told it will get better.

I give Owens a 5 star rating, they are unbelievable.
The staff works with you and most of all they remember you because it isn't a very large school.

Amber from Toledo, OH
I would rate Owens Community College a four out of five stars. They have a lot to offer at this school and they work with many schools for transferring in and out. They have just about every thing there expect maybe a pool.
Tiffany from Toledo, OH
OWENS HAS A VERY FLEXIBLE CLASS SCHEDULE IS THAT IS WONDERFUL FOR SOMEONE WITHOUT A LOT OF FREE TIME, LIKE ME. THEIR ONSITE DAYCARE IS NOT ONLY CONVENIENT,BUT RAN BY CAREGIVERS WHO DON'T TREAT MY CHILD AS A JOB. MY REASONS FOR GOING BACK TO SCHOOL MOSTLY REVOLVE AROUND GIVING MY CHILD A GOOD LIFE, AND OWENS HAS GIVEN ME THE OPPORTUNITIES AND TOOLS TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
