Oklahoma University - acceptance rate for out-of-state students?

I'm from out-of-state and considering applying to Oklahoma University. Does anyone know the acceptance rate for students like me, and if there's a significant difference compared to in-state applicants?

The University of Oklahoma (OU) has an overall acceptance rate of approximately 78%. However, OU does not publish separate acceptance rates for in-state and out-of-state students. That being said, you should keep in mind that OU is a public university, and public universities generally prioritize in-state students due to their mission to serve the local community. However, many public universities, including OU, accept a substantial number of out-of-state students as well.

As an out-of-state applicant, it's essential to focus on presenting a strong application that highlights your academic achievements, extracurricular involvement, and personal qualities. Make sure to research the programs offered by OU that align with your interests and goals, so you can tailor your application to demonstrate how you would contribute to the university community.

It's also a good idea to compare your academic profile (GPA, test scores, coursework) with the middle 50% of admitted OU students to see how you stack up against them. This will give you a better understanding of your chances of admission. Just remember that while being an out-of-state applicant may slightly influence the admissions decision, it's only a small factor compared to your overall academic qualifications and fit for the university.
