ORU is home! Studying at ORU was never limited to book knowledge; it was a growing experience in every area of my life. But the economic stress was tough.
Why I chose ORU
I love the culture and the people and professors are so accommodating
All you need is right here!
It's a great Christian school. I have learnt so much from the personal experiences of my professors regarding my course. Enrollment counselors and academic advisors show genuine concern and care for students. Courses are well taught and relatable. It's a great place to make lasting relationships, excell both spiritually (mature in your walk with God) and academically. Everything is tailored towards developing you as a whole.
