2014 HIGHER EDUCATION IMPACT DISTRICT 3 Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College • Northeastern State University • Rogers State University HIGHER EDUCATION IN OKLAHOMA • Over the last several years, Oklahoma’s public colleges and universities have experienced record enrollments and produced increasing numbers of graduates, remaining one of the most significant positive impacts on the state’s economy, communities and citizens. n More than 190,000 students enrolled annually. n More than 30,000 degrees awarded annually. • According to the FallinForBusiness.com survey report: n The quality of Oklahoma’s college and university system is ranked as the most important business climate strength. n Of the 5,400 Oklahoma business leaders surveyed, 87 percent indicated that the quality of Oklahoma’s higher education system is either excellent or good. Oklahoma’s public higher education institutions are a critical asset to the state, delivering community services and benefits that go far beyond the students enrolled and the degrees earned each year. No entity in state government can help Oklahoma reach its stated goals of academic excellence and economic development faster or more comprehensively than public higher education. BY THE NUMBERS Enrollment • During the 2012-13 academic year, more than 19,700 students enrolled at institutions in or near District 3.

Concurrent Enrollment • During the 2012-13 academic year, more than 1,100 students earned more than 8,000 credit hours taking concurrent courses at institutions in or near District 3.
