The admissions process at OU can be interesting. Scholarships are often promised
and there are not always enough to fulfill promises made. Apply early and commit
early to have the best chance at receiving scholarships. OU has a full tuition
scholarship based upon undergraduate grades and LSAT score when combined with the
low cost of living results in little or no debt at graduation. Get to know the
people in the admissions office. If you are out of state, a visit will show you
are serious and get you face time with the Dean. Personal relationships can still
play a big role for getting admitted in Oklahoma, especially for in state
students. Interviews are not required and I am not sure how much importance was
placed on the essay. I think they are simply trying to raise their rank through
buying LSAT scores. When I arrived at OU, they began raising their standards in
order to compete on a regional and national basis. The average LSAT score rose so
quickly that half of the third years when I was a first wouldn't have gotten into
my class and the same could be said of my class with last year's 1Ls. As the
class size shrinks, LSAT score requirements go up, so do the number of
applications. Selectivity at OU could be at an all time high.
