ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES AWAIT
a campus preview for transfer students
THERE'S ONLY ONE OKLAHOMA
At the University of Oklahoma, excellence isn’t just found in our classrooms. Excellence is in our state-of-the-art research labs, our playing fields and the champions who fill them, and the people who make up the OU Family. We believe there is only one Oklahoma, where one is you — full of potential, ready to be tested, shaped, and seen. One is our campus — which will serve as a launchpad, your home away from home, and a mirror that shows you not just who you’ve been, but who you’re going to become. One turns potential into transformation, allowing you to capture the endless opportunities only Oklahoma provides.
