OU is Test Optional
|
|
As a test-optional institution, students decide whether they want a test score (ACT or SAT) to be considered when applying.
|
|
|
While test scores are encouraged for admission, OU wants to be flexible and inclusive of all students. All applications are evaluated holistically, considering:
- Academic rigor and performance
- Engagement
- Essay
- Letters of recommendation
This process helps us identify students who have demonstrated academic excellence as well as grit, perseverance, and a passion to make a positive impact on the world.
Submitting test scores is still a great option for most of our applicants. We encourage you and your students to review our test optional information page and FAQs to determine what would be the best option.
