ONONDAGA, N.Y. — Students who want to earn a bachelor’s degree in addiction studies at SUNY Empire State College (ESC) can begin their work at Onondaga Community College (OCC).

We know what a challenging time this is for students and families. This agreement provides a tremendous level of certainty for anyone considering bettering their lives through higher education,” OCC President Casey Crabill said.
