Academics

This school will challenge you. Sure you can take easier classes at other schools but this school will require that you put some effort into your education. There is no such thing as an easy major here, they are all academically rigorous, but it is worth it and I guarantee that if you invest in it from your freshmen year on out then you�ll get the hang of balancing it. You WILL learn something here.

Exceptional. It is easy to tell you are a part of a private university, but the resources make your education feasible.

Great academics and the teachers are amazing.

Assuming you are a freshmen, at TU there is definitely an academic shock (like culture shock but for academics). Being at the top of your class in high school is a little irrelevant at TU, because everyone that comes here was at the top of their class. So here, you really have to work really hard to get the grade you want. The professors are not easy, but they honestly want you to learn and know the information. So, if you work hard, and study, then you will be at the top of your class again.

The University of Tulsa is a challenging schools that expands on cognitive stimulation and provides new ways to look at course material. TU provides in depth looks at course material that may seem challenging, but is worth the while in the long run. Professors are very easy to meet with and reevaluate misunderstood material for students.

The classes at TU are very challenging but not impossible. I've left every class feeling like I learned something I didn't know and something that I would actually use in the future. Almost every class is time consuming and difficult but the professors grade very fairly. If you work hard, you will do well.

Excellent. They show you a lot of work but the courses are challenging but not failing hard and if you are failing then they will try and help you out.

the university of tulsa jumped to spot 75 on the best colleges in the country this year (2011). professors cater to students needs; if the majority of students in a course are suffering, the professors will change the syllabus to the classroom needs.
