OKWU also hosts several religious student organizations. The Spiritual Life team leads Bible studies and worship services, and summer ministry teams represent the school in camps across the country. At OKWU, students can also get involved by joining student government or one of the many intramural sports teams. The OKWU Eagles varsity teams compete in the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics.
