What Students Are Saying

As a freshman, it is crucial to complete all your prerequisites in order for you to begin your field of study. As a result, courses are not as complicated yet. However, as one of the largest universities in the nation, OU is not easy, so be prepared to learn and accommodate to the new academic rigor that is extremely different than high school. It is vital to learn to study and take advantage of any and all of extra credit opportunities to boost your GPA. You will be academically challenged. Professors expect your homework assignments and essays to be turned in promptly. This means you must learn to juggle classes and manage your time wisely.
Julia from Edmond, OK
The classes here are not designed to be impossible, for the most part. They are challenging and they really work to make you think. The hardest part is balancing them. They have a lot of work, even if the work isn't that difficult. So, they can be hard because you have to juggle a multitude of subjects and all of your coursework due dates.
Brianna from Frisco, TX
My first semester was tough, but don't let that stop you. My professor met with me one-on-one in order to help me better understand the material of the assignments I was confused about.
