Congratulations on your admission to Oklahoma City University!
During
your first year in college you'll face many challenges. The First-Year
Experience (FYE) program at OCU is designed to give you the skills to be
successful in an academic community both inside and outside the
classroom.
The first year at OCU begins with Stars Week and
OCUReads and ends with Fire and Water, a powerful ceremony that
celebrates your success. In between, you may be involved with many of
our other FYE Programs and we hope you do! We want to be a resource to
all new students to help you succeed at Oklahoma City University.
