Abstract: The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education (State System) is the legal structure for providing public education at the collegiate level in Oklahoma. It is comprised of 25 public colleges and universities (two research universities, 10 regional universities, one liberal arts university, and 12 two-year colleges), 10 constituent agencies, and one university center. The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education coordinates the State System by setting academic standards of higher education, granting degrees, allocating funding from the Oklahoma Legislature, establishing tuition and fees within limits set by the Oklahoma Legislature, and managing scholarships and special programs, among other responsibilities. The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education contracted with the Economics Center to provide a comprehensive analysis of higher education in Oklahoma. This report evaluates educational attainment levels across Oklahoma, establishes trends in various metrics to illustrate how the State System has evolved, quantifies the economic and fiscal impact of the institutions within the State System, examines the employment characteristics of graduates from the State System, and quantifying the impact of the Oklahoma's Promise scholarship program.
