    Oxy is expensive, but offers great financial aid for students in need. It really is a fantastic school - it fosters a sense of community that other larger schools can't nurture.

    No. Its too expensive. Not even all the dorm rooms have AC. Health care doesnt cover dental, hearing or eye care. I have to do that outside of school. They didnt offer much at the new student parties. They barely gave me financial aide. not satisfied
