While ORU values spiritual life, the majority of the student body wouldn't doesn't have the same value behind closed doors. Out of chapel you would think you were at a secular university. The education quality is poor for most majors excepts for business, nursing, and theology. The tuition is way more than it should be and a complete waste of money. You won't get your money's worth at this school and will more than likely be disappointed in the education you received. Friendliness: A, Useful Schoolwork: F Have a Question?

I'm all for rules and chapel but ORU is all about money and not God. None of the staff want to help you and it seems everywhere I turned I was being fined. The majority of the students are sent there by thier parents (usually preachers kids) to straighten them out, but are wild behind closed doors. I lived in the dorms called Full Armor (3rd floor), and everyone would be naked the majority of the time dressing up with socks on their penises saying a prayer in the name of Jesus at the same time. It sickend me.It's all religious... an outwardly appearance and on the inside are snakes. woe uto you Richard Roberts and Ted Haggard. The sad thing, is God is real yeall and He is Living Water. Where is Spirit is there is freedom! Don't go to ORU... Serve the lord at your home town university, you can reach more people and get more done for Gods kingdom and save a lot of money. My name is Anthony Monteleone and not afraid to state it. Preparedness: -, Reputation: - Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

I came from a background of rules and order. My parents, while I love them, were quite strict and did not allow for any questions in regard to their rules. One thing that my parents did exceptionally well was to train me for life. I realize that I have become more of an adult during my time at college, but I was already reasonably mature and capable of making my own decisions. At ORU, there is an atmosphere not apparent until you get here. It is an extreme parental atmosphere. To someone like me, the rules don't seem overbearing at first. Then you realize that the attitudes of those enforcing those rules are not conducive to helping you grow as a person. The rules become weights and the enforcers become Pharisees. ORU does not prepare you to be a successful adult, it prepares you for being a mindless drone paying your tithes every Sunday. If you are a rational person, do not attend ORU. The Charismatic logic, or Charismania, will be extremely annoying, as you will deal with it from students, faculty, and staff. If you want to be respected as an adult, or even just a person, do not attend ORU. Administration loves making life hard and acting like they are your parents (this has nothing to do with curfew or other related rules), security loves to try to intimidate guys and girls alike, the male security guards love asking female students where they live (not necessary information) and they love being rude and gruff with male students. During a fire drill security laughed at us while we had to stand outside in the cold. A big portion of students are extremely legalistic and follow everything administration says without thinking about it. When you do question the validity of certain rules you get pounced on by all of the mindless drones. The Resident Advisors tend to act like the Gestapo. To bring this to a close, do not attend this school. It's not worth it. If you are a rational Christian, this university will only confuse and anger you. If you are not a Christian, this institution will not provide good examples of good Christianity. If you are a decent person that likes following rational rules, do not attend here. The administration does not allow you to question their authority. There are good people here. Most are misguided though. Please do not waste your time or money on ORU.
