Senior Year Reminders

Two students walking in front of Buchanan Hall.

Students should make the most of their last year at OU by contributing to their present and their future. 

If a student has a Federal Student Loan, they should visit studentaid.gov to complete their Exit Counseling.

If they have a Balance on Your Bursar Account Leading Up to Graduation, they can contact the Student Financial Center at (405) 325-9000 or visit Buchanan Hall. All account balances must be paid in full to receive a diploma or official transcripts.

There are many ways to stay involved at the University of Oklahoma through the Alumni Association. The Alumni Association offers a range of programs to connect alumni with campus and the rest of the world, including reunion programs, travel opportunities here and abroad, and academic enrichment opportunities.

Dedicated to the success of more than 100 alumni clubs around the world, the Alumni Association keeps graduates connected with the University and other fellow alumni members, with an online platform that offers mentorship and career opportunities as well.

Attend the Ring Ceremony! Students who have ordered their OU Ring are honored at the bi-annual OU Ring Ceremony. Participants and their guests are invited to take part in the symbolic ceremony and a celebratory reception that follows. During the ceremony, students will learn about the significance and legacy of the ring and move one step closer to joining the ranks of OU alumni.

Give to the Class Gift! The Class Gift gives graduating students an opportunity to leave a legacy for future generations and is a permanent reminder of their time at the University of Oklahoma. Find out how to donate.
