One stroll around our beautiful historic campus is enough to see why so many fall in love with the university. Our vibrant community offers something for everyone. At OU, not only will you receive a top education, you’ll make lifelong friends and become a unique part of the diverse OU family. At OU, you’ll find your home. OU's outstanding tradition in athletics brings an exciting vitality to the Norman campus! Across all sports, OU claims 38 total national titles, and students receive free admission to all athletic events, with the exception of football and men’s basketball. Campus Activities Council puts together campus-wide events, festivities, and fundraisers, while the Student Government Association (SGA) serves to advocate for undergraduate and graduate organizations and students' voices. Students can stay fit at Sarkeys Fitness Center! Conveniently located near the residence halls, this recreation area is great for exercise, weight lifting, racket sports, basketball, volleyball, rock climbing, and fitness classes such as yoga, kickboxing, and more.

The University of Arkansas offers a vibrant campus life that is culturally, intellectually and socially enriching. On the campus, you'll find 380 registered student organizations, from special interests to professional groups, as well as 33 Greek organizations, making it easy and rewarding to get involved.
