As a mother of an OU freshman (son) from DFW, I can tell you what went into his decision aside from academics. Proximity - OU is only 2.5 hours from our home. Size - OU is smaller than the major state universities in TX. Campus - Don't take your student to visit if you don't want them to enroll. The campus is beautiful, a manageable size, the dorms are clean and inviting, and Sooner pride is evident all over campus. Sports - Do I really need to say anything here! Greek System - the OU Greek System is STRONG with some of the most beautiful Greek housing I've ever seen. The sorority houses compare to 5-star hotels. I've toured two kids through schools across the country and OU stands out. Boomer Sooner!
