Welcome to Oak Point’s Virtual Open House!

Work. Life. We understand.

Our Virtual Open House offers a sneak peek into the life of an Oak Point student from the comfort of your own home or while standing in line at the grocery store.

Certainly, it’s our campuses and facilities, but it’s also the people. We invite you to meet our President, Dr. Therese Scanlan, and some of our faculty, staff, students, and alumni who will share their insights, joys, and a little bit about a day in their lives.

We hope that if you can make the time, that you will come and visit us—either at an in-person open house or by scheduling an individual campus visit. School is a big decision and we are here to help.
