The weekend includes activities to introduce you to the Aerobics Center, help you get a feel for residence hall living, and the fun of hanging out with friends on Friday night. You will also get to experience an ORU Chapel service.

On Thursday night, there will be a concert by the Michael Gungor Band. Michael is an ORU alum and experienced worship leader and singer/songwriter.

This weekend gives you a little taste of the great memories you could make on the ORU campus.

There will be some informative stuff too. There'll be ACT testing on Thursday afternoon and a chance on Saturday to mingle with faculty and hear about all of the departments and their majors and degree requirements. Sessions on Friday afternoon held by Admissions, Financial Aid, Student Development and others will give you the information you need to get started on your college experience. There will even be classes you can sit in on.

Parents and sponsors are also invited to College Weekend and encouraged to attend all the activities. There will be several events specifically for parents and sponsors such as a special Parent/Sponsor Luncheon on Friday and a Mother's tea will be held Saturday morning for moms and female sponsors.
