I took online dual credit classes here while in high school and I loved each of them. They weren't too hard, you just need to take time to complete the assignments. The professors were great and if you would email them asking a question or something, they would respond right away. They had a few cool campus activities for the students and stuff but they could do a little more.
Review Odessa College
I love Odessa college because the fact that it's different from most community college. I mean you get the first college class for free! As well as a chance to since a brand new mustang at the end of the year. A program called Drive to Success. All you have to be is a student & preform fun activities to win. The professors and the environment is an awesome place to be.
Transferring credits isn't an issue. People transfer to all different kinds of schools from here and never have problems!
