Oakland University Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Rachel

Oakland University?s environment is not the same as others. Because the majority of OU students commute , one would think that making life-long friends, having a thriving social life and a fantastic college experience would be impossible. My favorite part about OU is the ability for commuter students to experience college campus life while living at home to save money. OU caters their on-campus activities to make it possible for commuters to attend between classes or directly after. I love my university for the education I am receiving, the people I?ve met and this unforgettable college experience.

Oakland University is a smaller campus located in Rochester Hills, Michigan. To me, a smaller campus makes it easier to maneuver from building to building, connect socially with friends and professors, and it also allows for another way to explore. Even though it is a smaller canvas, it can create a a much larger masterpiece. As a student at this university, I am allowed to broaden my horizons and expectations in life in order to create a better future for myself.
