Finding your place on campus just got a lot easier. Campus Life has introduced Cowboy Central, the new hub for all things campus involvement.

Cowboy Central was created with one goal: to enhance the Cowboy experience. Gone are the days of multiple platforms, juggling various calendars and searching through inboxes to find out what’s happening on campus.

Beginning in August, Cowboy Central will be the primary tool for discovering events, joining organizations, exploring service opportunities and tracking out-of-class experiences.

One Platform, Infinite Possibilities

To provide a more cohesive experience for the Cowboy family, Campus Link and GivePulse will no longer be available for use starting in July. Cowboy Central will move into their place as the platform for all campus events, service opportunities and tracking.

“Cowboy Central represents a major step forward in how we connect students to the Oklahoma State University experience,” said Dr. Aleigha Mariott, assistant vice president for Campus Life. “By bringing events, organizations and service opportunities into one streamlined platform, we’re making it easier than ever for students to find their place, get involved and make the most of their time at OSU. At the heart of Cowboy Central is our commitment to students."

Whether you’re a student looking for your next service opportunity, an organization leader tracking membership or a staff member coordinating a campus-wide event, the platform provides a streamlined way to engage.

Campus Life at Your Fingertips

For increased accessibility and ease of use, Cowboy Central will also have a mobile app that will officially debut in August. Available on the App Store and Google Play, the app will allow users to:

• Scan-In: Use a digital event pass for quick entry to campus events and activities.
• Explore Anywhere: Browse the 500+ student organizations and service opportunities directly from your smartphone.
• Stay in the Loop: Receive real-time notifications about organization meetings and university happenings.

Stay Tuned

Campus Life and its partners are currently finalizing the platform and mobile app for their debut, and the OSU community can learn more during Cowboy Welcome.

Make sure to keep an eye on your inbox and Campus Life social media for app download links and more information. The future of campus life at OSU arrives this August.
