Impact and Excellence:
RSU has degree programs in Oklahoma’s top 10 fastest-growing industry sectors, and has built a reputation as a leading regional university for healthcare students—nursing, allied health, medical/molecular biology and other programs—with graduates advancing to medical, dental, chiropractic and professional schools.
RSU offers unique degree programs across varied disciplines along with unmatched facilities, including an on-campus nature reserve, research land dedicated for biological and social sciences, and a behavioral sciences lab. The school’s bachelor’s degree programs produce students capable of graduate-level, original research and projects during their capstone courses.
RSU is consistently recognized for its value in offering a quality education. RSU students graduate with some of the lowest student debt in the nation, as noted by U.S. News and World Report.
Campus Life:
On-campus students can choose from a mix of residential life options, including apartments and traditional dormitory-style housing. RSU has more than 30 student organizations that promote involvement and leadership within the campus and surrounding communities. Sports are also a big part of campus life. RSU competes as a member of the NCAA Division II in the MIAA Conference, fielding 12 men’s and women’s teams, along with cheer and dance teams.
