Description
For Information Like Degrees Offered, Annual Costs, Etc., Please Click The Banner Below: The Agricultural College Episode is designed to profile agricultural trade schools, junior colleges, colleges and universities around the U.S.  This episode is an effort to replicate the conversation that prospective students, parents and ag teachers might have with agricultural schools at trade show like the National FFA Convention. Northwest Oklahoma State University sits in a small town and rural county, and it is poised to give you exactly the agricultural education and college experience that you are looking for.  There is something special about going to college in a small community that wraps itself around its university, and I believe that Alva, Oklahoma is one of these places.  If that were not enough, the many activities for students, including "Howdy Week" and "Bahama Breakaway" create bookends to a school year full of opportunity.  If you are looking for the place that you will fit and can complete your degree without debt, this is probably the perfect fit!
