You're going to get mostly everything you pay for....this is a public college where people go to get enough credits at a cheap price to transfer to bigger schools

OC is pretty cheap, mainly because its a community college and only tuition is paid and some fees. Each credit is roughly $400-500 and most take 15 credits a quarter. Going here you should have enough time for a part-time job, and thus can pay as you go.

I believe Olympic College provides amazing academics for the tuition which is payed by students. Not only is there a huge selection of classes to satisfy students academic needs there is also resources on campus to help students succeed in their academics. There is a newly reconstructed Library with numerous computer labs, free tutoring and writing lab, and the campus is open to students early morning to late night and even on Saturdays.

I've taken a variety of classes and know more than if I had stayed on one track. I've wasted a little time checking options out, but I think I'm the richer for it.

It is cost efficient to get your 2 year degree here before going to a University.
