    From Oklahoma Baptist University

    Oklahoma Baptist University equips the next generation of future shapers to live all of life, all for Jesus.

    As an OBU student, you will experience faculty who become your mentors, personally investing themselves in who you are and who you will become. They not only teach you about a subject, but they also show you how to use your faith and education to impact the world for God and for good. You become part of a community with other students who share common interests, who become the friends you study and hang out with, and who stay connected with you long after graduation.

    You’ll receive a world-class education, preparing you for life regardless of your field of study. But an OBU education does much more than that. It teaches you how to use your gifts, your talents, and your resources to leverage them for Jesus. Because in Him, we find our value. In Him, we find our purpose. In Him, we find our path.
