Oxnard College is a public community college in Oxnard, California, United States. Established in 1975 by the Ventura County Community College District, it serves the Oxnard Plain cities of Oxnard, Camarillo, and Port Hueneme. Oxnard College offers both degrees and certificates in 26 different fields. The college offers associate degrees — including the California transfer curriculum — and one bachelor's degree, as well as career and technical education programs to the local community.
Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable community college pathway in Ventura County, with a smaller enrollment of about 6,000 students that can mean more personal attention than a larger campus. The honest concern is the median earnings of $34,000 ten years after enrollment — that's below the national median wage, so think carefully about which transfer path or career program you choose here, because outcomes can vary significantly by field. This school makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year university rather than a terminal credential.
