Daymar College-Louisville Introduction

Established in 1963 under the name of Owensboro Business College, Daymar College obtained its present and definitive name in 2001. The school, which has maintained its business focus yet branched out into a few other areas of career training, is located in the Kentucky community of Owensboro and has branch campuses throughout the state as well as neighboring Indiana and Ohio (in towns such as Bellevue and Paducah, Kentucky; Rockport, Indiana; and Chillicothe and Lancaster, Ohio).

Daymar College is owned and operated by the private corporate Daymar Colleges Group, meaning that it is a for-profit institute of higher education. The school offers post-secondary certificate and diploma programs as well as various associate degrees (the highest academic degree conferred at Daymar College).

Daymar College-Louisville Academics

The academic offering at Daymar College is divided into some 13 unique academic programs from which students have the opportunity choose approximately 35 different specialized career tracks. The school’s principal and most recognizable academic focus (a result of its orientation upon founding back in 1963) is in the area of business and office management, yet today the school has several other academic options in the areas of e-commerce, paralegal studies, computer science and more.

The practical, career-tracked outlook of Daymar College is complemented by its willingness to accommodate students’ busy lives and challenging circumstances; the school offers distance and online learning options in select programs as a result.

Daymar College-Louisville Students

The student body at Daymar College is surprisingly small, with slightly fewer than 300 students being enrolled on a given semester. The vast majority (over 95%) of these students are enrolled at Daymar College on a full-time basis: of these, the vast majority also happens to be composed of in-state students. Women dominate the student body with a little over 80% of the total share, and Caucasians constitute more than 90% of the total, with African Americans being the next largest demographic.

There is no on-campus housing available at Daymar College, making all the students daily commuters to and from classes.
