The PPE for Incoming Freshmen
The PPE major puts students on the fast track to the Oklahoma City University School of Law. Incoming Freshmen in the PPE program can qualify to complete their combined B.A. and J.D. degrees in only six years rather than the usual seven. This results in significant tuition savings. To qualify for early admission to OKCU Law, participants must complete the course requirements of the PPE degree. They will receive their B.A. degrees after successfully completing their first year of law school.
PPE students with an undergraduate GPA of 3.5 or higher and an LSAT score of 155 or higher are guaranteed admission to the OKCU School of Law. Other PPE students will receive a preference in admission to the School of Law over applicants from other undergraduate institutions.

- A composite ACT score of 27 or higher
