How to Apply

Admission to all degree programs of the University requires the submission of the following documents:

Application for Admission
For those applying for campus housing, a housing application will be mailed with your acceptance. Once you've applied, we'll send scholarship information. Apply online >>

High School Transcript
Transfer students who have completed 24 college credit hours, or more, only have to submit college transcripts.

College Transcripts
Transfer students need to submit an official transcript from each college attended, sent directly from the institution to the OBU Admissions Office. New freshmen who have taken concurrent college work must also submit an official transcript from each institution attended. Transfers will not receive an acceptance decision until all previous college work is submitted. Transcripts issued to the student are not acceptable for admission purposes. Any student who fails to report work taken at another institution is subject to immediate expulsion from OBU.

Test Scores
Transfer applicants who have completed less than 24 college credit hours must submit satisfactory scores on either the American College Test (ACT) or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). OBU's ACT code is 3414 and SAT code is 6541. This requirement may be waived for students over 25 years of age. Scores recorded on an official high school transcript or those reported directly from the testing agency are acceptable.

Student Health Service Record
Though not required for admission, the health form is sent to the applicant with the letter of acceptance and is required prior to enrollment. A transfer student may submit a previous college health form if it was completed within five years of enrollment at OBU.
