Oakwood University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Jennifer

I just wish I had known more about the requirements of the education department specifically so that I could have been ahead of the game in my major.

Caryn

Before coming to Oakwood University, I wish I would have been better informed about scholarship opportunities. As a transfer student, I did not feel as though I was offered the same quality of scholarships as maybe those who came straight out of high school. My scholarship search could have been a lot easier if someone assisted me. This is not completely Oakwood University's fault because I also have the responsibility of being independent-- I just wish I would have received more information prior to attending.

Marcelus

I wish I had known about the curfew when applying to school. I also wish I had known about how it is impossible to get food after 10 pm. Another thing I wish I had known about was the fines I can recieve. For example being fined for being late to curfew. I wish I was aware of these things before I came here.

I wish I had known about the availability of scholarship programs.

Jewel

I wish that I had known to fill out more scholarships before I came to school. I would have made a part time job out of submitting scholarships. School is very expensive and that is the one thing that I regret not doing. I also wish that I developed better study habits in highschool so that I could develop them better in college.

Weybrielle

I wish i would have known that if your GPA happens to fall below a 2.0 then the student will become on academic probation where he/she has to be in the dorm by 11:30pm no later each day. The student will not be allowed to spend the night anywhere except the dorm. I also wish i would have known that the work out room is so small and the availability and hours of the cafe and library does not fit everybody's schedule.

The toll it would take on my life and the lives of my twin sisters its a blessing we all got in. College has impacted our lives so much.

Carmela

I want to start a new life on my own in order to understand what it's like to become a responsible for all the things that I would love to do in the future. Begin on the journey to a new mission that I need to do during school and the future.

Sherieda

Honestly nothing because I already expected certain things.
