You may apply for admission prior to taking the ACT or SAT and send your scores to the university when they are made available.

Transfers

Transfer applicants are not required to submit an ACT or SAT score unless basic math and English courses have not been completed. If you have not completed those courses, please send copies of your test scores to OC.

Transcripts

First-Time Freshmen

High school senior applicants must submit a current high school transcript. Please give the transcript request form (click here to download a copy of the form) to your high school counselor and request a transcript be sent to the university. Upon graduation, students also must send the university a completed transcript reflecting completed courses and class rank.

Transfers

Transfer students must submit official transcripts from each college previously attended. Transfer students also should submit high school transcripts. Please give the transcript request form to the appropriate personnel at your current and former college(s) and request that a transcript be sent to OC.

Character Recommendation

Applicants should identify one character reference (teacher, minister, community leader, etc.). Give the Character Recommendation Form (click here for a copy) with a stamped envelope addressed "Attn: Admissions Office, Oklahoma Christian University, Box 11000, Oklahoma City, OK
73136" to your selected reference and request that they promptly complete it and return it to OC. If your reference prefers to submit
the recommendation online, please direct them to www.oc.edu/character. Relatives should not serve as references.

Important Note! To determine admittance to Oklahoma Christian University, the Admissions Office must receive a student’s application for admission, test scores, current transcript(s) and Character Recommendation Form. Notification of your admissions status will be mailed to you within a week of receipt of completed information.
