University of Tulsa Top Questions

Being a transfer student, I wish I had known the requirements for my major sooner. Because I did not know which class I have to take to get my degree, I ended up taking classes I did not need for my major. I could have saved myself a year from taking unneeded classes. Also, I wish I had known that certain classes are only offered in certain semesters; I could have prepared better before coming to TU.

I wish I had known that not all the credit you earned in high school will count towards your major depending on what major you choose. Also, I would have wanted to know to take as many different courses as you can in high school. That's not to say that you cannot once you reach this university, just that it might help you narrow down what you want to do as there is a lot to choose from.

Scholarship opportunities

I really had no idea that TU had one of the best Petroleum Engineering Departments in the U.S.. In 2007 we were ranked 3rd in the nation. I wish someone had told me how promising a career in the Petroleum Industry could be when i was a senior in high school. Something else I wish I had taken advantage of was the amount of scholarships available. TU is a private school but it does not cost anymore than any other out-of-state college. There were lots of scholarships available that no one took the time to show me.

I wish that I had known to sign up for the smallest meal plan. I almost never ate in the cafeteria my freshman year because I did not like the meals offered. Most of my meals were eaten at home or at local fast food restraunts. I could have saved a lot of money by purchasing a smaller meal plan or no meal plan at all.

I wish that i would have known that to suceed, you must be motivated to reach your goals. No one will hand you a prize for doing nothing, you must get out there and give 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} and to put as much effort forward as possible.
