Affordability Matters

We know you didn’t plan on this situation. We are offering an Oaks to Aces Scholarship of up to $10,000 to current OCU undergraduate students affected by the suspension of undergraduate programs. This scholarship will be offered in addition to academic merit scholarships and need-based aid.

Oaks to Aces Scholarship of $10,000 plus Academic Merit Scholarship between $18,000 and $27,000 plus any university, state, or federal need-based aid you qualify for.

Credits Matter

We know how much work goes into every class you’ve completed. That’s why our team will carefully review your coursework and do our best to accept as many eligible transfer credits as possible. Our goal is to help you continue your education with as little disruption as possible.

Academics Matter

The learning environment at UE is active and personal with plenty of discussion, discovery, research, and real-world application. Many OCU majors align directly with programs at UE, and we will work closely with you to find the best fit.

Experiences Matter

You’ll have access to all the experiences that make a UE education distinctive: internships, community engagement, athletics, music ensembles, and more. And you’ll also have all the advantages of living and learning in a vibrant city full of opportunity.

Through various campus ministries and spiritual formation opportunities, you’ll have space to reflect, ask big questions, and find meaning and purpose in your journey.

And when you’re ready to look ahead, Harlaxton College—UE’s British campus—offers a study abroad experience unlike any other.

WHY UE?

Because where you go next matters.

You deserve a place that sees you, supports you, and helps you move forward with purpose. At the University of Evansville, you won’t feel like you’re starting over. You’ll feel like you’ve found a place that fits.

With small class sizes, personal support, and hands-on learning, you’ll continue building toward your goals without losing momentum. Your professors will know your name. Your experiences will go beyond the classroom. And your future will stay on track.

This isn’t starting over. It’s continuing your story—with the right people beside you.

You’re navigating an unexpected turn in your educational journey, and I know that probably feels very unsettling. But I also want you to know this: a change in plans can sometimes open doors you never expected.

Over the years at the University of Evansville, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know students from many different backgrounds and educational paths. The experiences they have and the friendships they build at UE are life-changing.

Let’s connect. UE might just be the place where your next chapter begins. And I’m here to help get you started.
