Olympic College is a public community college in Bremerton, Washington. It opened as Olympic Junior College on September 5, 1946. Olympic College serves Kitsap and Mason counties in Washington. The college's service area contains two major naval installations: Naval Base Kitsap and Naval Hospital Bremerton.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $7,755/year average net cost and only $8,000 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the most affordable paths to a degree or transfer in Washington state. However, the 34% graduation rate is a real concern — most students who start here don't finish — so you'll want to go in with a clear plan, advisor support, and ideally a specific program or transfer goal in mind. If you're cost-conscious, planning to transfer to a four-year school, or pursuing a focused vocational credential, it's worth a serious look; if you need a lot of structure and support to stay on track, think carefully about what's driving that low completion number.
