Onondaga Community College

Amazing place to be with great professors. There are many opportunities available to every student. Advisors are easy to connect with and speak with. The professors seem nice and willing. I’m impressed with how easy the application status was and enrolling was. I highly recommend

Onondaga Community College is definitely the place to be! It is more than a college but a platform to explore our interests. From the diversity of students to the curriculum accuracy, all of this is encompassed into this one giant-whole experience for students and teachers from all walks of life. Thank you.

Onondaga is a clean, safe, highly achieving college in academics, arts, sciences, and athletics. It’s the best community college campus I’ve ever been to - a lot of them feel like high schools but OCC really feels like a college. The professors and students are all equally amazing!

I like the college overall as a part time student. Not really a fan of their student services department, sometimes they don't give you the correct information. There isn't alot of places to eat real close by, they are about 5 miles down the road. I wish the nursing department was open 24 hours a day so people who work during the day could access the lab in the evening. They keep you up to date on events on campus.

Overall, I absolutely love Onondaga Community College. It is a very safe and positive environment and no one is ever rude or unethical. Everyone is always helpful. The dorms are cozy and secure; definitely always protected. No one goes against the rules at all either.

It's not a bad place if you know how to use the campus to it's fullest without living there. The on campus living scene isn't about academics at all. If you have a connection to teach you the ins and outs or you spend enough time here to figure it all out yourself you can make your experience here an awesome one. We have some amazing professors (don't always go by Rate My Professor!) The Learning Center and the library are both newly renovated and super nice. OCC is legit my second home, I'm working on my second degree from here. There is plenty of riff raff but if you keep your head in the game and do your research, OCC can take you places. I'm a non traditional student, single mom and over 30. I never feel out of place here and I've found all of my professors to be accomodating to my needs.

Onondaga Community College (OCC) is an excellent stepping stone for students who want a good education without spending a ton of money. The ASL program is one of the best and can place you in ASL level 4 at RIT/NTID if you are interested in ASL-English Interpreting. However, the food is terrible and I wouldn't recommend the Sushi. Several students and a professor got food poisoning from the Sushi and another professor had food poisoning from the chicken.

I commuted, and thus was not very involved. Because I was only up there for classes, I did not make many friends. However, the teachers are an amazing bunch. So passionate, involved, and willing to work with us students. I still keep in touch with them.

It's a great school to start off with. The school itself is amazing. There are people of all kind. It is hard to get the "college experience" here, because it is a community college. Other than that, academics are hard and you are really put up to standards that you wouldn't expect from a community college.

I think OCC is a great school if your looking to transfer to a four year college afterwards. I think OCC in my opinion should be more organized with the enrollment process so expect a few errors when enrolling. on campus housing should be a last resort because a lot of stuff happened at OCC on campus housing and and can be very stressful and hindering to your academic ability to study
