Frequently Asked Questions for Your Visit 

What happens during an campus visit at OBU?

Personalized Campus Visit

A personalized visit offers a more individualized experience tailored specifically to you and your interests. During your visit, you will receive a guided campus tour, meet one-on-one with an admissions counselor, and have the opportunity to connect with faculty in your intended major. Individual visits are a great option if you prefer a flexible schedule or want a deeper, more focused look at a specific program.

Bison Day

Bison Day is our premier campus visit experience at Oklahoma Baptist University, designed to give you a full, immersive look at life on Bison Hill. During Bison Day, you will join other prospective students to experience chapel, attend a real college class, meet faculty, connect with current students, and explore campus through a guided tour.

We know choosing a college is a big decision, and we want your entire family to feel confident and supported in the process.

Where do campus visits begin at Oklahoma Baptist University?
