Financial Aid

Odessa College will award over 8 million dollars in financial aid this year. While financial aid does not cover personal non-school related expenses, it can help with expenses such as tuition, fees, books, supplies and dorm costs. Late applicants may not have funds awarded until after classes start so must make other payment arrangements, such as a FACTS payment plan, for upfront costs.
