Admission requirements
At Oklahoma State University, we're committed to helping qualified students get admitted to OSU to begin earning their college degrees. Please note that some academic colleges may have additional program-specific admission criteria.
Admissions standards
| Credit Hours Attempted* | Admission Requirements |
|---|---|
| 7-23 credit hours | Freshman admission requirements and 2.25 GPA** |
| 24-59 credit hours | 2.25 GPA |
| More than 60 hours or associate degree | 2.0 GPA |
*excluding incomplete, passing grades (ex: "P" or "S"), remedial/developmental, repeated/forgiven credit and activity courses.
** English language proficiency requirement will be waived for international students who have or will have attended English-speaking high schools located in the U.S. for 3 or more years.
** English language proficiency exams will be waived for transfer students who have 24 or more transferable credit hours from a U.S. or English-speaking post-secondary institution in a country where English is a primary language.
Students who don't meet transfer admission requirements but feel their past academic
performance is not indicative of their ability to succeed in college can submit a petition for admission on probation.
Transfer probation petitions must be submitted by noon the Thursday before the start of the term for which you have applied. Once your petition has been evaluated, you will be notified of the admission decision as soon as possible. If you have questions about the petition process, contact us at 405-744-5358.
