University of Oklahoma-Norman Campus Top Questions

My absolute most favorite experience from college has been the times I studied and traveled abroad. Travelling opened my mind and expanded my worldview. It made me realize just how many people/places/cultures are out there and how trivial most of my problems really are. It’s also a great way to meet friends – being in a foreign place makes you bond very quickly, and you’ll make lifelong memories.

OU is amazing academically. There are so many different types of scholars and the university excells in many areas, such as education majors, meteorology, physics, and astronomy.

The uniqueness about this school is that it is so sport oriented, especially with football. Half of the students play some kind of sport and all students show extreme pride in their Sooners. Everyone gets excited about the football games and the entire campus nearly shuts down for the at-home games. Tailgating is a way of life here and not liking your hometown Sooners, especially if you like the University of Texas team, you automatically get shunned.

THe Baptist Student Union there is the best in the country and I wanted to be a part of what they are doing and my brother was already attending the university which made travel easy.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! At this point I couldn't imagine what my life would be like without the University of Oklahoma, and the people I've met around here.

In comparison to other schools I considered attending, Oklahoma stood out because it is a college town. The whole city of Norman rallies around the Oklahoma Sooners. I am a football fanatic so I just fell right into "Sooner Land." The mall is called "The Sooners Mall." There is a "Sooners Sonic" fast food restaurant and majority of the business establishments have something about "The Sooners" as part of their daily announcements. (Signs) My first Oklahoma Sooner tailgate party was extremely exciting. I was overwhelmed with the school spirit and community support provided by the Norman community.

The campus is really compact and every building is easily accessible. There is also a lot of school spirit on game days! Everyone comes out to support the sooners.

It is located in a large suberb, but still has a small town feel to it. There is a lot of school spirit. Advisors are very welcoming and informative. The campus is beautiful and full of culturally diverse students, faculty, and staff. There is many extracirricular activities available to all students.
