A Note About Branch & Technical Campuses

Several Oklahoma institutions operate additional campuses, branches, professional schools, or learning centers. Examples include Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology in Okmulgee, Oklahoma State University–Oklahoma City, OSU-Tulsa, OU Health Sciences, OU-Tulsa, Langston University–Tulsa and Oklahoma City, and additional community-college locations. These locations are part of their parent institutions and are therefore not counted as separate institutions in the 39-institution total above.
