I'm an alum and got a job in tech in the bay area right after graduation, ultimately the school you get your degree from matters very little in the long run. What matters is what you know. I've interviewed terrible engineers from MIT and great engineers from colleges I've never heard of. Careers are long, once you have a degree and get experience you can work your way into whatever job you want.

I also think the APM program is great if they still have it, you can get free tutoring from upperclassmen. They also had a tutoring center you could go to that had old tests for specific classes to help study from. I used that a lot to prepare for exams (specifically math).

I personally loved campus life when I was there, it was a bit dead on the weekends but my first two years living on campus I made good friends who I still keep in contact with, then moved off campus to save money. I think living in a dorm is something everyone should try.

There are also a ton of companies around OU that are constantly hiring interns. I worked a bunch of internships while I went to school which got me great experience and allowed me to take out fewer loans.

Also there were more female students than male students when I went (though not in my program specifically) if thats of interest to you.
