Oregon State University-Cascades Campus Admissions

OSU-Cascades is less selective with a 79% acceptance rate. This means most students who apply get in, making it accessible for those who might struggle with admission to more competitive universities. The campus doesn't publish standardized test score ranges, reflecting its focus on well-rounded admissions rather than test performance alone. With just 1,054 students enrolled, the admissions team can take time to evaluate each application individually. The school seeks students who want the benefits of a major research university in a small college setting. Ideal candidates appreciate outdoor recreation opportunities in Central Oregon and prefer close faculty relationships, as evidenced by the 9:1 student-faculty ratio.
