Oklahoma Baptist University transforms lives by equipping students with a distinctively Christian liberal arts education. For over 110 years, OBU’s students have gone into their world and made an eternal impact in their communities through the life-changing education we provide on Bison Hill. We hold a sacred trust between our students, faculty, and staff as we commit to learn and grow together to see the lordship of Jesus set on display in all of life. Our mission is our passion: as a Christian liberal arts university, OBU transforms lives by equipping students to pursue academic excellence, to integrate your faith with all areas of knowledge, to engage a diverse world, and to live worthy of the high calling of God in Christ.
