Programs
Student Affairs
The Division of Student Affairs is dedicated to each student’s success, from their first year at Oregon State to their lives post-graduation. We care about our students, promoting health and well-being, fostering inclusive communities and empowering students to become leaders. Our departments and offices reach across and beyond campus while supporting retention among diverse student populations. They ensure that learning does not stop at the classroom door, that it happens 24/7, intertwined with every aspect of student life.
Precollege
The Office of Precollege Programs oversees a wide range of youth outreach activities designed to increase college access and academic preparation for Oregon’s youth. Academic programs and youth camps provide pathways to higher education and offer opportunities to enhance college readiness and career awareness. Our mission is to provide engaging learning experiences rooted in equity and inclusion that promote youth success, creating a world where all youth envision their potential, have a sense of belonging, thrive and succeed.
Admissions
Oregon State University is a dynamic community of dreamers, doers, problem-solvers and change-makers. We don’t wait for challenges to present themselves — we seek them out and take them on. We welcome students, faculty and staff from every background and perspective into a community where everyone feels seen and heard. We have deep-rooted mindfulness for the natural world and all who depend on it, and together, we apply knowledge, tools and skills to build a better future for all.
Extension and Engagement
The Division of Extension and Engagement leads and supports collaborative work to improve the health and well-being of Oregonians and communities and encourage economic development and industry innovation. We co-create and share the science and knowledge of Oregon State University and deliver access to education for learner success across the lifespan. We help connect OSU’s educational programs and resources to all people — wherever and whenever they wish to learn.
