About Us
What possibilities! Those are the words the University of Oklahoma’s first president, David Ross Boyd, uttered when he first stepped off the train in Norman and looked across the land on which the university would eventually stand. Now, nearly 130 years later, those words still ring true. Named a Tier One Research Institution by the Carnegie Foundation and a Best Value College by Princeton Review, OU boasts over 170 degree programs and 550 student organizations to empower students to pursue their passions and make a global impact.
