==History==
Occidental Mindoro State College was established as Barrio High School in 1966. The idea that the school should be shaped after [[Pedro Orata]]’s Barangay High School was conceived by then Mayor Juan G. Santos, Sr., who was also the PTA President of San Jose Pilot Elementary School. The concept was carried out by Sofronio Fadre, Schools Division Superintendent, and Mariano Ramirez, East District Supervisor. Mayor Tirso Abedela approved Resolution No. 23 in 1967, establishing the self-supporting public secondary school as San Jose Municipal High School.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.omsc.edu.ph/index.php/about-omsc|title = Occidental Mindoro State College}}</ref>

===Elevation to State College===
San Jose Municipal High School was elevated to San Jose National High School (SJNHS) by Republic Act No. 6568, sponsored by Congressman PedroNene C. Medalla, SrSato. Bernabe Macaraig was appointed as the school's first principal. Upon the school's elevation, attendance exceeded 3,000 students.
 
SJNHS has elevated again to Occidental Mindoro State College on 24 June 1983. This was due by virtue of Batas Pambansa Blg. 531 as amended by Republic Act No. 9747,<ref name=ra9747>{{cite PH act|url=https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/2009/11/10/republic-act-no-9747|title=An Act Renaming the Occidental Mindoro National College in the Municipality of San Jose, Province of Occidental Mindoro as the Occidental Mindoro State College|chamber=RA|number=9747|publisher=[[Official Gazette (Philippines)|The Official Gazette]]|date=2009-11-10|accessdate=2024-09-08}}</ref> which was sponsored by Congressman Pedro T.

OMSC expanded in the 1991-92 school year, with the absorption of Occidental Mindoro Community College in Mamburao by the state college. The community college became a satellite campus of the OMSC and became known as the OMSC-Mamburao Campus, which offers baccalaureate and non-degree courses. A {{convert|98.8725|ha}} plot owned by the Organization for the International Scientific and Cultural Advancement (OISCA) was also acquired by the state college through the Provincial Board and Provincial Development Council.

===Expansion within San Jose===
In the year 2000, by virtue of Republic Act 8760 (also known as the General Appropriations Act) significant reforms were brought about in the educational system, specifically to OMSC. It became the host to CHED-supervised institutions in the province, namely the Occidental Mindoro Polytechnic College (OMPC) in Murtha, San Jose, Occidental Mindoro and the Pedro T. Mendiola, Sr. Memorial Technological and Polytechnic College in Brgy. Bagong Sikat, San Jose, Occidental Mindoro. With the integration, OMPC became known as the OMSC-OMPC Campus, while the PTMSMTPC was renamed to OMSC-PTMSMTPC and is now situated at the Labangan Campus.
 
After 15 years of sterling and dedicated service to the Institution, Sofronio S. Sanqui, the second college president, retired. He was replaced by Arnold N. Venturina, when the Board of Trustees of the College elected him on 11 September 2009. With the change of administration, several significant changes in the programs and policies of the college were also enforced.
 
Three months to Venturina’s presidency, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed RA 9747, also known as an “Act renamingRenaming Occidental Mindoro National College as the Occidental Mindoro State College”, on 10 November 2009,<ref name=ra9747/> whose principal sponsor was Congresswoman and Deputy Speaker, [[Girlie Villarosa|Amelita C. Villarosa]].
 
On 1 May 2010, the college was conferred the “San Jose Builders Award (Education Sector)" by the San Jose Centennial Commission. This was in recognition of its significant contributions to the progress and development of the town of San Jose.
