The mission of Oakwood University, a historically black, Seventh-day Adventist institution, is to transform students through biblically based education for service to God and humanity. This transformation process is best described as an “experience.” For more than a century, Oakwood has been preparing students for a life of service to God and humanity through the creation of a unique learning environment that fosters achievement of learning, camaraderie, worship, amazing music and overall development of the whole person--all comprising the “Oakwood Experience.” Our non-traditional online students are also privileged to experience Oakwood in a similar way since virtual access is available for many on-campus events. Begin your “Oakwood Experience” now by learning more about the school’s history, regularly scheduled worship services and student events, obtaining news updates and connecting with the bigger Oakwood community through social media.
