I began my college career attending another school. It was a very prestigious school and I attended for a year with little issues. My grades were fine, I had made a few friends, the classes and professors were alright. However, during the summer before my sophomore year, intense anxiety and depression hit. It grew to the point where I knew I would not be able to function in school. So, I took a year off. I knew I would not be going back to that previous college. Instead, I turned to Owensboro Community and Technical College. At OCTC, I found thought provoking classes, very kind and supportive professors, a beautiful campus, and kindhearted classmates. This was a place I could overcome my anxiety and continue my education. I left OCTC this past semester feeling happy and confident and prepared to transfer to a four-year school. I will forever be thankful for that.
I like how the campus is small, so you get one on one time with your professor. The professors at this college seem to care more about how you succeed. You meet different people in your classes that may not be from the area you live in. I also like how you can do on campus and online. I think the college needs more activities, so people will get more involved with school and not just show up when they need to.
This is my second year at OCTC and I love it. My first year was stressful but fun. I was 33 years out of school and coming back. Everyone was so helpful, from the professors to the students, everyone was always ready to stop and help whenever I had a problem or question. I don't know everything my second year on campus but it's the same this year. When I have questions, everyone I ask, they're eager to help, so it wasn't a fluke... this campus is awesome!
