Cameron University is an amazing college. I love the science department. Cameron is one of the only facilities in Oklahoma who allow students to practice on actual cadavers! Not to mention the dorms are very nice - especially compared to all other dorm rooms I have seen in Oklahoma.
Overall 4.6
All of my friends, who graduated, have found great jobs, across the country. The girls are fine; the parties are fun. The gym is awesome, and the education is very challenging. CU provides a solid education with a challenging curriculum. The acceptance rate from CU to medical school is higher than OSU or OU, likewise w MCAT and DAT scores.

I am graduating this year and can honestly say that I will miss Cameron University. Its definitely one of the nicer universities in the state of Oklahoma. Plus, the tuition comes at a great price. I always recommend Cameron University to those wanting to further their education.

Best School Ever .

I love Dr. Price. He is extremely intelligent. He will make you work but lays everything out you need. You have to come to class, no late work. Stay off your phones! He hates it and it will reflect on your score. He will teach you everything you will ever need to know about speeches, and is very helpful. Whatever grade you get, you truly earned it.

Not only does this school strive to provide you with academic excellence, it is consistantly evolving and raising the bar for the University and students alike. This school is getting to the point where just the right amount of courses are being offered while keeping that small town, friendly atmosphere where it is an honor to learn.
Overall 4.3
Small student:teacher ratios! If you fail at this school it is because you are not showing up to class!

The faculty will seemingly steer you on the wrong path with scheduling & cause you to get over a year behind. Cameron University makes it near impossible for students to graduate on time due to HIGHLY restricted class schedule options. Several upper level classes are only offered every other year in the fall or spring & virtually no summer classes.

No; unless it's free andor you have no choice, RUN!

Pitful Business Department. They will make you take twice as many classes as you have too. They also refuse to accept credits from other institutions- even if those colleges are larger and more prestigious. Terrible experience. I would recommend SWOSU, SEOSU, OU, or OSU ahead of Cameron. Take your money elsewhere!

There are activities on campus, but student participation is so low, that the activities almost always suck. I actually drive out of town just to have fun! Course offerings could most definately be better, and I would actually advise against living on campus. I tried to think of something positive to add, but alas I couldn't think of anything!

I got my degree a few years ago & have found it to be pretty worthless. Employers haven't heard of the U. outside of OK & while there were great profs like Drs Y, Paridon, & Carraher 2 of the 3 are gone & not replaced. The 1 valuable part was getting to have a paper presented at Oxford U. but that option is gone. OU should audit hiring.

Get your GEN Ed here and go somewhere else.

They might have the cheapest tuition in Oklahoma, but it's the cheapest for a reason...
