Points of Pride
Oregon State University is one of three universities in the U.S. to hold all four grant designations: land, sun, sea, and space.
Corvallis (Oregon State’s home) is consistently ranked as one of the safest, smartest and friendliest cities in the nation.
The Honors College (HC) at OSU is one of only a handful of degree-granting honors programs. HC students graduate with an Honors Baccalaureate degree. The Honors Baccalaureate is jointly awarded by the HC and the student’s major(s).
