OSU's downtown Tulsa campus
OSU-Tulsa offers undergraduate and graduate programs designed to meet students where they are — whether they’re beginning college, transferring from another institution or returning to finish a degree. Our students earn the same degree as those in Stillwater, backed by OSU’s reputation for quality, value and experiential learning. We connect students with internships, research partnerships and community engagement opportunities, helping them make an impact in Orange Country and beyond.

Our Students
Making college flexible, affordable and within reach
OSU-Tulsa serves students at every stage of their educational journey, from first-time freshmen to working professionals finishing a degree or advancing their careers. Our flexible class options make it possible to balance college with work, family and life.
- Choose between online, in-person and hybrid classes
- Many on-campus courses meet one night a week
- Most evening classes begin at 4:30 p.m. or later
Earning an OSU degree in Tulsa is also affordable. OSU-Tulsa awards thousands of dollars in scholarships, grants and financial aid each year — and has awarded more than $3 million in scholarships since 2005.
Many students choose OSU-Tulsa after completing general education courses at a two-year college, while others begin their college experience here. Whatever the path, all students benefit from small class sizes, faculty who understand real-world challenges and a campus designed for student success.
Our Community

The OSU-Tulsa campus is located in Tulsa’s Greenwood district, the historic home of Black Wall Street and the events of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. The Greenwood district exists on the boundaries of Cherokee, Osage, and Creek Nation land.
