Put aside your expectations of what a seminar is like. OSLEP is different. There will be formal sessions with the scholar which are a blend of lecture, group discussions, question and answer exchanges. The setting is not the traditional classroom, but a place where there is a close interaction with the scholar and other students.

"I have learned so much about how people think and how that influences their ideas and perspectives." -OCU student

"I thought that I would not 'fit' into the group because of cultural differences as well as the age difference. I feel comfortable with all of the group..." -Langston student

The students represent a variety of fields of study, experience, campuses and ages, so you can anticipate discussion and debates continuing at meals together as well as at any time of the day or night.

"I expected and got a renewed enthusiasm for education." -NSU student

"...this has been one of the best experiences of my life." -OSU student
