The Academic Catalog contains everything you need to know about our programs and courses. In addition, you’ll find helpful information about admissions, registration, student services, academic requirements, and more.

University Mission

EOU guides student inquiry through integrated, high-quality liberal arts and professional programs that lead to responsible and reflective action in a diverse and interconnected world. As an educational, cultural, and scholarly center, EOU connects the rural regions of Oregon to a wider world. Our beautiful setting and small size enhance the personal attention our students receive, while partnerships with colleges, universities, agencies, and communities add to the educational possibilities of our region and state.

EOU Welcome!

In the Eastern Oregon University catalog, you’ll find information about our liberal arts and professional programs - quality programs that prepare you for the world beyond college. We work with you to make your education accessible and affordable. Classes are available when and where you need them - at our main campus in La Grande, online from anywhere in the world, or onsite at 11 centers across the state. Pursuing your education with us also means you’ll be working with faculty who bring real-world experience to the table and staff who want to see you succeed.

When it comes to finances, students on average are paying thousands less to attend EOU than other public and private institutions in our neighborhood. Whoa, what was that? We said thousands less. We think our “Core Themes” sum it all up pretty well and reflect why we are committed to providing you with a personal, student centered experience in all that we do.
