    Am learning a lot

    There is an extensive amount of information being taught at Oregon Institute of Technology, and excellent professors that are extremely willing to help you learn it. Since this college is on the smaller side, the professors know you by your name and are committed to teaching you as best they can.
    Am enjoying being here

    At first, I wasn't too thrilled about the surrounding town. Klamath Falls, Oregon is a rural town, which harbors few entertaining venues. As I continued to live there though, I realized that happiness assured by the town you live in, but the friends that you have there. I am happy because I have met some of the best people in my life there. If only we had some better places to spend our weekends...
    Bang for the buck

    Just look at the rate of job placement. It's crazy high! It's about the same cost of OSU or U of O, and it has far better job placement. This college will ready you for the future and won't bankrupt you in the process.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you're looking for a party college, just look the other way.
    Great for these types of students

    Dedicated students will enjoy this environment. This isn't a party school, and people should be prepared for a rural surrounding. If you need an environment that will help you keep focused, this is the college to look into.

    oit is a great school because of the one-on-one help you get from the teachers. they are very engaged and flexible to work with you, not to mention small class sizes. it also helps that oit is very cost-effective.

    check out all your resources at oit, there is always help when you need it. also, know what feild of study your going into before you apply.
    Academic Rigor

    oit has a very hands on approach with teaching, so while the classes may be difficult to some, you actually take knowledge out of what you are being taught.
    Dorm Life

    oit has the best dorms around. they are extremely cheap and insanely new and nice. there is many dorm activities constantly going on and if you are in the residence hall you will definitely make some new friends.
    Food and Dining

    a new company has taken over oit called sodexo the past year, but the food is outstanding for any mood you have. they have 4 restaurants and subway next door.

    oit requires a lot of hard work, but it is so much fun. there is so much hands-on learning! all of the professors are very helpful.
    Tips for prospective students

    if you intend to go to oit make sure you are ready to study and ask questions when you don't understand something. when you ask questions then the professors will recognize you and be more willing to help. the campus is beautiful, but drier than i thought it would be.
    Academic Rigor

    there are lectures that are coupled with labs in most majors at oit. be sure to pay attention in lectures to easily do the labs.
    Dorm Life

    i haven't lived on campus so i can't really say anything about dorm life.
    Food and Dining

    there isn't much to choose from on campus. there are a few different places to get coffee, though, which is good enough for me.
    What to do for fun

    there are so many different clubs at oit that i wish i had more time each week! there is always something going on campus.
    Bang for the buck

    oit may be slightly more expensive than a regular state school, but they have a great reputation.
    Clubs and Activities

    as i mentioned earlier, there are so many different clubs on campus that there is always some event going on.

    The information technology field is not stable right now but it is better than it was 3 years ago. I think this field will filter out all the bad teachers within a 2-3 year time.
    Am enjoying being here

    There is nothing to do at Klamath Falls besides drink.
    Bang for the buck

    If you have to pay regular tuition it is not worth going to this school because it will become to expensive per term
    Tips for prospective students

    Do not change majors you will find yourself set back a whole year

    The teachers are great. Very nice, hands on, and always willing to help.
    Am enjoying being here

    I grew up in this town and never realized what a gem we have here. The campus is great. Everyone is very friendly. And this school could give plenty of others a run for their money as far as advancements in every department.
    Bang for the buck

    It was excellent for me because I live at home and am just completing my generals before I transfer to a bigger school.
    Tips for prospective students

    Don't be afraid to get involved and make new friends
    Great for these types of students

    Students that like a smaller school with small classes, close relationships with professors, and hands on learning.
