Oklahoma City University is a place of education filled with exceptional professors and faculty. Being an intern in campus technology services has also enabled me to get to know brilliant people involved in admissions, finances, and professors of all departments. The entire campus is a positive environment that is sensitive to the needs of the student as well as professional growth. I believe that Oklahoma City University should be the first choice amongst Oklahoma high school students and anyone seeking to further their education. The professors are warm and encouraging. I have found friends and mentors that have inspired me to become all that I desire to be. It is with great delight that I am a student at a university that isn't just focused on academics, but coaching students on how to become upstanding citizens of the United States. The housing is comfortable and the food served in the cafeteria is delicious. Oklahoma City University has become my home away from home.

The individual programs are fantastic, though some gen-eds are a little sub par. There is a great campus community and lots of ways to get involved, and that community extends to alumni so you leave school with a strong network in place. The emphasis on community service helped me feel more connected to the area outside of school as well. Housing was difficult to communicate with, and the buildings are a little old and require frequent maintenance, but the space itself is pretty good.

For anyone studying the fine arts- the program is impeccable! I am a dance major and the program not only prepares students to be a performer but we all learn behind the scenes skills such as costumer, production, lighting etc.
Dorms are old and have problems. Only one cafeteria and food is horrible
