Good reviews
Overall 4.5
The campus itself is beautiful. Lots of green spaces, study areas, and comfy couches to nap on. The caf food is okay, depending on your tastes. Alvins, our cafe, offers lots of tasty options as well as a full Starbucks. Everyone on campus is very friendly. However, campus is smack in the middle of a sketchy part of town. Drive, don't walk.

This is the best school I've ever attended and I feel so blessed to be here. It's beautiful and the faculty is amazing. The class sizes are so small and I feel well known by every staff member I meet.

I love this place! The professors actually care about their students and encourage us to really learn. There is always something cool going on around here so you are never bored. I like the small school vibe--you don't feel lost in the crowd. The campus diversity lets you be exposed to lots of different perspectives. Very tolerant atmosphere.

This place is terrible! I am transferring out as soon as possible. The only thing to get involved in is Greek life and even then, all the girls drop out. The school Moto is 'Gay By May" which says something..
Overall 1.7
Music school is a waste of space for graduate instrumental students. Some teachers are fantastic in the academic side, but most of the studio teachers are inexperienced or just plain horrible. The campus isn't lit, and at night that is a serious problem! It's in the ghetto! A GA and stipend isn't enough to keep me at OCU, I wish I hadn't come here.
Overall 1.9
Very weird vibe. Classes are extremely small and the school itself is incredibly overpriced. They seem to really only care about the dance school, where everyone seems miserable and just attains eating disorders.

Ocu is great if you live on campus. Commuters good luck.

Kramer School of Nursing at Oklahoma City University is waste of your money? Watch out!
