Admission Requirements

Admission requirements can vary from year to year. Undergraduate admission is based on your previous educational background. An applicant is classified into one of the following categories based on his/her previous educational experience. These categories determine what requirements you must meet for admission to Oklahoma State University. The links will take you directly to the requirements for that category.
