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.
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!
I have attended Owensboro Community & Technical College since 2014. I am a 36 year old female that graduated in 1998 so you could say it had been a while since I have attended any schooling. I am the first person out of my family to ever go to college. I am a single mother of two kids that are my absolute world and are my support team. I can honestly say that with all the help with our Library and Teaching and Learning Center they have helped me to become a successful 3.5 GPA student that I am today. The professors here are amazing. They are there for you when you need help. The safety on our campus is also great. I never have felt unsafe in my school. I would definitely recommend OCTC to everyone that I know.
