At the University of Oklahoma you will learn so much in each of your classes. Your professors not only teach you valuable skills for your major, they teach you life long lessons as well. Although some class sizes may be larger than smaller universities, the professors are still there for you every step of the way. They invite you to their office hours and are very concerned with how each student is doing in their class.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
OU offers something for everyone; I love being here in Norman! It's not a big city, so you feel comfortable walking around campus and everything is within reasonable driving distance. The campus here at OU is beautiful; especially in the fall and spring. Whatever you are interested in you will be able to find it here. There are huge flat screen TVs in the dorms with video game systems. At the student union every weekend they offer free movie showings to students as well as give you free popcorn and drinks! Oh and how could I forget OU game days!! Saturday game days are so much fun at OU, you walk to the stadium with your friends and sit in the student section. There is nothing more exciting than cheering on the Sooners, especially against Texas (even though that's in Dallas) or OSU!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I know out of state tuition is higher than in-state tuition, but I think every penny is worth it to go to OU. I wouldn't trade my experience here for anything. I know it's expensive, I am a full time student and working full time as well, but I wouldn't want to go any where else except here.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I think it would be very helpful if you came on a campus tour. It will really show you everything OU has to offer and you will be able to walk around campus and see where your potential classes might be. Also, start applying for financial aid and scholarships early! If you wait until the last minuet, there won't be anything left! Good luck with your senior year of high school and BOOMER SOONER!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
-Anyone into athletics
-We have a great business and engineering school; so anyone interested in that
-Students who would want to go to a D-1 university, but still has a small town atmosphere
