Success happens. Even during tough times.

Students still dream.  Educators still inspire. And community colleges still shape lives.

At OCC, we make a bold promise: to help you get there—to your next college, your next promotion, or your next personal goal.  

Not just in good times, but all times.

It’s a strong commitment. One we’ve made—and kept—to more than one million successful alums.

Times change.  Our promise doesn’t.

OCC.  We’ll help you get there.

ORANGE IS GREEN – Our commitment to sustainability and the environment is evident campuswide. From the OCC Recycling Center to energy-efficient lighting, water conservation to “green” career training, OCC continues to grow greener every day. 
 
FOCUSED ON COMMUNITY – Thanks to a recent bond measure approved by voters, OCC is upgrading facilities to meet the challenges of the future. A new library, art gallery, science complex, and fitness center will better serve students and the community.
