What is an ACT/SAT? Which one do I need to take?
The ACT and SAT are both national college admission examinations that consist of tests in: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science. You can take either the ACT or the SAT to be considered for admission at OKWU.
What is a GPA? How do I calculate it?
Your GPA is the average grade you earned in one semester or academic term. You can figure out your GPA by dividing your grade points by the number of credits you attempted. Talk to an academic advisor at your school if you have questions about your GPA.
How will I know if I am accepted at OKWU?
Just one week after you submit your application you will receive a letter from us letting you know if you have been accepted at OKWU.
If I am accepted, when do I have to decide if I am going to attend OKWU?
Once admitted, we ask that you submit a $100.00 housing deposit to confirm your intention to enroll at OKWU. You can submit this deposit anytime up until school begins in the fall.
