Annual Fact Books

The Annual Profile of the University of Oklahoma - also known as the OU Fact Book - is published each spring with data as of the most recently completed fall and/or fiscal year. The Fact Book is a comprehensive source of data about students, faculty and staff, finances, and research activity at OU. It includes summaries for the entire University of Oklahoma, as well as information for each of the three physical campuses of which OU is comprised: Norman Campus, Health Sciences Center, and OU-Tulsa. It also has a section dedicated to Extended Campus programs.

In an effort to provide institutional information in a timely fashion, we post sections as they become available, rather than waiting until the entire document is printed and bound. Once a section is complete, the page number will become an active hyperlink. If a page you want is listed but the link is not active, that means the page is not yet available. Once we begin a new fact book cycle, we put the prior year’s pages into a single bookmarked PDF file. Those older fact books are available at the bottom of this page.

Please send any questions you have about the content or availability of fact book data to irr@ou.edu.

Previous Years

There was a major change in the way OU reports enrollment information, effective with the 2015 Fact Book, compared to prior years. Norman Campus is actually made up of several different subareas, including offerings in Tulsa and our Extended Campus (formerly Advanced Programs) offerings to military personnel across the globe.

IRR used to provide enrollment data for Norman On-Campus only as our default, but over the past five years or so the changes in the way our students enroll in classes has made that practice unrepresentative of overall campus activities. The subareas that make up Norman Campus activities have a lot of cross-enrollment with Norman On-Campus and each other, so we’ve chosen to make the overall, unduplicated total enrollment for all those activities the default enrollment information we show in our reports.

We realize that providing enrollment for all Norman Campus programs does not work for all purposes. If you are interested in the number of students living in and around Norman and attending classes in-person, that’s one of the times when using Norman On-Campus only makes the most sense. Please contact us if you have any questions about this methodology change.

For prior years not listed, please contact our office.
