University of Tulsa Top Questions

When I was considering colleges my senior year, I found that TU was the only school that I had applied to that had taken the time to actively recruit me, taking my financial situation and transcript into further consideration that a statistical glance. I feel like they viewed me as a future asset to their school, instead of just a name and GPA. They saw me for my potential and worked very closely with my family to ensure that I could be there with every opportunity at my fingertips.

This school rewards students who excell.

Small school in a really big town

TU isn't as great as it says it is, but if you can sift through the administration bullshit you'll find lifelong friends and great times. I wish the President cared more about the daily lives of students instead of trying to place us in the Top 100 schools list every year.

Coming from a small, public high school, it was a little strange to go to school with so many students from private high schools. Sometimes I notice a gap between the opportunities that were available to me in comparison to the education my peers received before TU. There are also a lot of financially affluent students on campus. That said, these differences don't play much of a role in my day to day life at TU.

PELASE PLEASE.... DROP THE HOUSING RATES (APARTMENTS AND DORMS) DOWN, NOT UP. I'm not that positive if TU would put that in mind and try to drop the living costs down a little bet, but at least I didn't what I can do, and more. this is all for future students....

The worst thing at TU is the cafeteria. While many other colleges have multiple cafeterias, open at all hours of day and night, TU is sorely lacking in proper scheduling and nutrition. THe food is mediocre and the cafeteria is not open at necessarily convenient times for students. There should be multiple cafeterias with a wide variety of foods to chose from, and they should be open from 6 in the morning until early hours of the next morning. The cafeteria is the worst problem I have faced on campus, and as someone with limited resources, I can't afford to have a mediocre cafeteria.

I loved my four years at TU and look forward to seeing the new entrance that is close to being finished

Golden Hurricane!

The bottom line: I'm from Tulsa and I was worried to go to school here because of my friends from high school and my parents. I wanted to live my own life and grow up. One day I woke up in April of my senior year and I knew that I should go to TU. I was hesitatant the first few weeks, but I quickly realized that I had made the right decision. 99.9{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of everyone I talk to says they feel the same way, that they feel like TU is their home. I guess you could say TU is kind of like eating warm and gooey chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk in front of a fire place on a cold winter day.
