International Pageant

The International Pageant highlights the talent, culture and diversity of UCO's international students with pageant participants from around the world. 

There are first, second and third place winners receiving varying amounts of scholarships, ranging from $500 - $1,600.

The first-place winners become part of UCO's royalty and represent the international student population at various functions.

The event is free for the community, students, faculty and staff.

Persons who, because of a special need or condition, would like to request accommodation should contact the International House as soon as possible, but no later than 72 hours before the event, so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
