Our campus is a place where students are excited to engage with each other academically, socially, and in extracurricular activities. Nearly all students live on campus all four years and are ready to be active members of the community. From sharing meals in the cafeteria to studying in the library to attending several events held every week, there is momentum moving in every direction. Here\u2019s what that looks like.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSTART YOUR TOUR<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\n\t\t\t

30% of Oles participate in one of our 18 music ensembles, but only 8% of those students are music majors. That\u2019s because our music program is open to every student, even those who aren\u2019t music majors. That is also why all incoming students, regardless of major, are able to apply for and be awarded music scholarships.<\/p>\n
