“Do not miss the opportunity to go to Camp Crimson.
You will meet some incredible people and it will really
put you a step ahead when you start college! One of the
best experiences I have had at OU!”
“Do not miss the opportunity to go to Camp Crimson.

put you a step ahead when you start college! One of the
best experiences I have had at OU!”
“Camp Crimson is your opportunity to get a jump-start
to college. You will build relationships, get to know
your way around campus, and fall in love with OU and
our university’s traditions. You only get one chance
to go to camp, don’t miss out!!”
“Any student entering the University of Oklahoma
should DEFINITELY go to Camp Crimson. I totally
changed the way I view OU and made me fall in
love with this University!”
“Camp Crimson is the best thing that you can take
part in to get you ready for life at the University of
Oklahoma! It immerses you in an energetic and
exciting environment while giving you the
opportunity to make friends that will last your
entire college career, learn the OU traditions,
and have a great time!”
“I think that Camp Crimson is an unforgettable
experience that every incoming freshman would not
want to miss out on. Going to the camp myself, I
made unforgettable friends, danced non stop, and
it was the first time I felt a part of the University.
BOOMER SOONER!”
“I believe that Camp Crimson is a wonderful way to
start off your first year at the University of Oklahoma.
I met some of my best friends at camp, and I made
many memories that will last a lifetime! When I look
back ten years from now, I know that Camp Crimson
will continue to be my favorite OU tradition!”
“I would tell any and every incoming student to not
hesitate for a moment about coming to Camp Crimson!
Camp is hands-down my favorite thing about OU; it
embodies the community and family-like atmosphere
of the campus.”
“I feel like I was practically raised on campus so I did
not think I needed to go to camp. But going ended up
being the best decision ever. Camp is not just for
learning about campus and traditions. Camp is about
making new friends, wonderful memories, and really
feeling like you are now a part of the OU family.”
“Camp Crimson is more than just an orientation
weekend. It is a chance to grow as a Sooner and
establish OU as your new home away from home.”
“Whether an incoming freshman or a transfer student,
Camp Crimson is a great way to hit the ground running
at OU. It is not only a great introduction to campus,
but it also is an opportunity to make and develop
lasting relationships.”
“The start of your OU experience isn't the first day of
classes, it's Camp Crimson. No matter if you know
everything about the University of Oklahoma, you
need Camp Crimson to introduce you to new people.
Lifelong friendships start here!”
“Take a leap of faith and just come to Camp Crimson.
It might be scary at first, but if you do it and are willing
to participate, you will come back to Norman excited
to start your college experience.”
“Camp Crimson is not only a weekend event, but
something that will stay with you throughout the
whole entire school year. From the traditions you
learn to the people you meet, Camp Crimson will
help you build your bridge into entering college.”
“Camp Crimson is for every type of person, whether
outgoing or more reserved. Anyone coming to college
for the first time or transferring to OU needs to feel
connected and supported. Camp Crimson connects
you to the most incredible Sooners who care about
you and who want you to succeed.”
“Camp Crimson is the perfect way to ease into the
transition from high school to college. You are
surrounded by students embarking on the same
journey you are, and to meet friends before you even
step into your first class is priceless. You are leaps and
bounds ahead of students who miss out on the
experience because you already went through the
‘first day nerves.’ Camp makes the freshman
experience one to remember.”
“There is hands-down no better way to start off
your time at the University of Oklahoma. If you
want a head start on getting immersed into the
Sooner Nation, COME TO CAMP.”
“Every year I hear from numerous students who
regret that they did not come to Camp Crimson.
They have witnessed the difference it makes in the
lives of those who attend, and wish they had chosen
differently. Don’t be one of those students!”
