Start Here, Go Anywhere
Your next chapter starts January 4! Whether you’re beginning college for the first time or returning to finish what you started, Oregon Coast Community College is ready to help you take the next step.
Winter Term begins January 4, 2027, and there’s no better time to get started. At OCCC, we welcome new students every term — Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. You don’t have to wait until September to begin working toward your goals.
And you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
Every new OCCC student starts with a one-on-one meeting with one of our friendly Student Success Coaches. They’ll take the time to learn about you, your interests, and your goals — whether you’re planning to transfer to a four-year university, preparing for a new career, or simply exploring what’s possible.
Your Success Coach will help you choose the right classes to get where you want to go. They’ll also answer your questions about applying to OCCC, registering for classes, and navigating financial aid opportunities that can make college more affordable than you might think.
For 40 years, OCCC has helped Lincoln County residents build brighter futures. Wherever you’re headed, we’re here to help you get there.
