Investing in OKWU’s Future
Campus Renaissance
OKWU’s campus is over 27 acres — with growing space for athletics and multi-use housing.
To maintain our position as a leader in education, we need to upgrade our campus infrastructure. Renovating classrooms, labs, and living spaces will improve the student experience and drive future growth.
The Campus Renaissance projects will support modernization of academic spaces, residential housing, and expansion for the growing needs of students.
The Campus Renaissance will transform our community’s experience by providing:
- A Christ-centered community for life-change
- Enhancing facilities for quality learning
- Renovations to dorms for safe and comfort
- Expansions to student housing and classrooms
- Boost recruitment and retention of top students
Wesley Hall
Goal: $400,000 / Fully Funded
Thanks to the generosity of the OKWU community, the Wesley Hall renovation project was fully funded in less than 9 months!
As the Campus Renaissance continues, we now turn our attention to Colaw Hall! In the summer of 2024, we replaced the roof, and the next phase of this project is focused on interior renovations. Your gift to the Renaissance helps us make Colaw Hall a welcoming, comfortable place for residents to experience OKWU.
These projects will enhance the student experience and drive future growth.
Parking & Safety
Goal: $1 Million
Better student parking and safety are vital for a great university experience and growth. With more parking spaces and improved safety, students can focus on studying and campus life. This elevates student satisfaction and strengthens the university. Your support helps build a reputation of a welcoming and secure campus.
Campus Housing
Goal: $4 Million
Outdated dorms with insufficient space are negatively impacting the student experience and the university’s growth potential. By providing a supportive environment, we can boost student success, improve academic achievement, and attract even more talented students.
Student’s urgently need renovated and expanded residential dorms and multi-use housing:
Residential Dorms
Start goal of $500,000 by December 31, 2023, to renovate one older dorm.

- Colaw Hall
Multi-use Housing
Start goal of $1 million by July 1, 2024, to increase multi-use housing capacity for students.
