WILL MY CREDITS TRANSFER?
I have never felt more at home than I did when I found OU. OU has been the place where I have learned the most about myself. I never thought that my life would be changed in the way it has and I credit it all to OU. I have discovered my passions in my degree plan, dreamt new dreams, and made some of the best friends I could have ever asked for.”
