less expensive than at other SDA institutions across North America—achieved through

the combination of aggres-sive fundraising, institutional

scholarships, streamlining operational expenses, and

the diligence of students’ families paying their bills in

a timely fashion.

Through our many off-campus minis-tries (such as our Aeolians Choir win-ning national and world champion-

ships), we strive to witness to a world hungering for what God has gifted

Oakwood to deliver, since 1896. “You will stand trial before governors

and kings because you are my follow-ers. But this will be your opportunity to

tell the rulers and other unbelievers about me.” Matthew 10:18

“Historically Black Col-leges and Universities have probably given more to the students who attended them

than the students ever could repay. (…) Being in a nurturing environ-ment, kids who attend

HBCUs develop a sense of themselves, a sense of their heritage, (…).”

Tom Joyner, nation-ally syndicated radio

personality and philan-thropist

Our dear Oakwood within whose vale Thy standards will not fail;Our hearts are filled with wondrous cheer when thoughts of thee draw near.We love thy pines, thy elms, thy oaks, and campus always green. Thy many flow’rs and distant mounts form one impressive scene.

To thee our dear Oakwood, to thee we shall ever sing.For decades thou hast stood, thy name should ever ring.Here we’ve spent our happy days, so we love to sing thy praise;and wherever we may be, we’ll always be true to thee,Oakwood University.
