For more than 25 years, OU has hosted Camp Crimson, an orientation experience designed to assist undergraduate students as they transition into their first year at the University of Oklahoma.
Camp Crimson is a 5-day orientation experience that gives students the opportunity to connect with their new OU community. These days will be packed with engaging activities that will allow students to connect with their peers, get to know campus, learn about OU's history and traditions, complete their first-year trainings, connect with faculty and staff, and attend many amazing events. Our time together includes Class Kick-Off, special opportunities just for transfer students, early connections to the career center and campus resources, and more!
Transfer students may opt-in to Camp Crimson through their OU Bound Account. If you have questions, please email us at campcrimson@ou.edu.
New Student Programs newest tradition begins with our first annual Crimson Winter Welcome. Taking inspiration from Camp Crimson, a long-standing OU tradition, Crimson Winter Welcome will be an orientation experience designed to welcome students joining the University of Oklahoma in January.
Crimson Winter Welcome is a 2-day experience where students can expect to connect with peers as well as meet current students, staff, and faculty. There will be informational sessions and engaging activities that will help students explore campus, build a community, and start their year off right!
Transfer Programs exist to ensure connection, support, and a sense of belonging is created for transfer students at the University of Oklahoma. This program hosts social gatherings each semester, provides peer mentoring, and extends leadership opportunities for the students involved.
