University of Central Oklahoma Reviews

UCO is a great college, it's accessible and affordable, offering many scholarship and aid opportunities for incoming and current students! I am a member of the musical theatre program and the professors are incredibly welcoming and everyone in the program wants to see you succeed. The student body is fairly diverse and very supportive of everyone around them, and the school offers many opportunities for engagement on campus through student organizations, greek life, etc. The campus resources are abundant including academic advisors that are always willing to help with questions and financial resource centers for both aid and payments. The campus is fairly good sized, though not too large that it is overwhelming to navigate, and is covered in greenery and inviting areas for students to congregate or have some time to themselves in the scenic area. The school features a plentiful 4-story library, an expansive wellness center, and comfortable dorms, as well as many other resources.
Working with the University of Central Oklahoma along my journey of obtaining my bachelor's in criminal justice has taught me a lot. I have learned to advocate for myself and navigate through a complicated system. I am excited to be on my path of success.
I come from a challenging background. I was raised in a situation that I was trafficked in. I had to survive my initial obstacles in order to pursue a path of success. University of Central Oklahoma has been understanding with my obstacles and background. They have a great advocacy network for students.
There have been a few challenges I've faced as an adult. Which include but aren't limited to; being a single parent, having a disability and having been subjected to a hate crime involving gun violence with my kids.
I am finally in a place to be able to earn my degree. UCO has helped make sure I can attain the goals I set for myself. I am excited for my future!

The diversity! This school has been one the highlights of my life so far. I am a student that is very active in the community and with fellow students. Something that I would like to see change is how its hard to interact with the clubs/activities you are interested in and see what is upcoming for the students. Overall this college has been wondaful whether it be my studies, the buildings, or my fellow students'. I am so greatful for the large opportunity that I have gained.
