About Oklahoma Christian University
Oklahoma Christian University was founded in 1950 as Central Christian College. When it first opened it was a two-year college, and then in 1962 the school began offering bachelor’s degrees. Before extending its degree offerings, Central Christian College changed its name to Oklahoma Christian University in 1959. As a private institution of higher education affiliated with the Churches of Christ, the University’s mission is “to provide a community that transforms lives for Christian faith, scholarship, and service.”
Oklahoma Christian University awards bachelor’s degrees, master’s degrees, and professional certificates. Several degrees can be earned in entirely online formats. By earning a degree with OC online, you have the flexibility to earn your degree and a paycheck at the same time.
