Applying to college just got easier

“On-The-Spot Admissions” events offer support at every step

Oregon Coast Community College has launched its 2025 schedule of “On-The-Spot Admissions” events for prospective students. These events provide expert, one-on-one assistance to students with every part of the college application process, from financial aid to course selection to the application itself. These events are a great opportunity for recent high school graduates and working adults who may have never attended college before – as well as those who started a college degree but never completed.

The “On-The-Spot Admissions” events will take place on the following dates, at the Central County Campus in Newport (400 SE College Way), and the North County Center in Lincoln City (3788 SE High School Drive):

• Monday, Aug. 4 in Newport, 10am-Noon
• Tuesday, Aug. 19 in Newport, 1-3pm
• Wednesday, Sept. 3 in Lincoln City, 10am-Noon

At the “On-The-Spot Admissions” events, students will have access to friendly student success coaches available to answer any questions and provide guidance through the college-application process. The events will also offer tours of the campus, so students can get a feel for the college and its programs.=

OCCC is committed to providing a quality education to all students, and the “On-The-Spot Admissions” events are just one example of that commitment. Students who attend the events will have the opportunity to apply to the college, receive a decision on the same day, and even register for classes.

There is no need to register in advance for these events. For more details, visit the OCCC website, oregoncoast.edu, or call the admissions office at 541-867-8501.
