It’s easy to get started at OC. You will need a few things to apply for admissions.

  • First time in college students will need their official high school transcript with graduation date or TxCHSE/GED score report.
  • Transfer students will need official transcripts from all other colleges/universities attended. Those who will be on an OC athletic team must provide an official high school transcript with graduation date, also.
  • If you’re under 22 years old, you will need to provide proof of a Bacterial Meningitis vaccination within the last five years.
  • Be able to show proof of residency to determine cost per credit.
