Total student enrollment (undergraduate and graduate) is more than 19,000. 81% of students are Oregon residents, while 5% hail from other countries. Over 200,000 people have attended OSU since its founding.

OSU offers more than 200 academic degree programs and is most noted for engineering, environmental sciences, forestry, oceanography and pharmacy. In recent years, however, OSU's liberal arts program has grown significantly, with the College of Liberal Arts now the largest at the school. The university has more majors, minors, and special programs than any other college in Oregon. In a 2005 study conducted by the Shanghai Jiao Tong University ranking the world's top 500 universities by academic merit, OSU placed within the category of 101st-152nd place. ^*

The 2005 Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education lists OSU as "Comprehensive Doctoral with Medical/Veterinary", one of only three such universities in the Pacific Northwest. In 2006 Carnegie also classified the university as having "very high research activity", making OSU the only university in Oregon to hold that honor. ^* It receives more research grant funds annually than the rest of the Oregon University System schools combined.
