SWOSU is an amazing campus. It's is affordable, clean, well-displayed, friendly, and has close nit community. On top of all that SWOSU has a fast growing Engineering department, and has been working with Oklahoma high schoolers with the First Tech Challenge which is high school level robotics competitions.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
The campus may seem small, but looks can be deceiving. Go to the campus, look at all the departments your interested in, talk to the teachers (they are always willing to give you a summary of the class and are really friendly), and talk to some of the students in the departments building to get a better perspective of the area of your interest. SWOSU is an awesome campus, don't rule it out until you check it out.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
SWOSU is at the top of the Pharmacy schools, and has amazing Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) programs. The teachers are really friendly and care about their students success which helps a lot when you need help with your work. They have a very high graduation rate compared to most schools in Oklahoma.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Having a dorm on campus can be life saver. You have almost 24/7 access to computers, exercise equiptment, free laundry, free internet connection, free cable, and the different dorms are always having fun nights where they get everyone together for fun activities. From any dorm you can walk to where you need to be on campus.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
SWOSU has an awesome concession area at the Wellness Center, and the Student Union is conviently located right in the middle of campus. There are so many choices for food, dessert, and much more. They even have a Starbucks in the Student Union.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Each dorm has a lounge to hang with friends at and play pool, ping pong, watch movies, and frequently have fun nights with all sorts of activities. The Wellness Center has exercise equiptment, a rock wall, basketball courts, and loads more. Weatherford has a movie theatre, the YMCA, bowling, SWOSU and local pools, and is close to Oklahoma City.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Take the price of most schools in Oklahoma, and cut it in half to get the affordable SWOSU price with the same or better education provided. They also give out tons of scholarships. You get more for less.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students going into Pharmacy, Nursing, Engineering, and almost any other major area you can think of. It's a great school for anyone.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are so many clubs and activities that its hard to not want to be in all of them. Each area of study pretty much has their own clubs, and if the impossible happens and you can't find a good club, it is extremely easy to make one. There over a hundred clubs that I know of and I haven't even tried looking up all of them.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
There are campus police 24/7. SWOSU is a completely smoke-free campus which is extremely rare. I can't think of a safer, or cleaner campus.
