Higher Education through Cooperative Alliances

techprep

Our Cooperative Alliance Agreements allow high school and adult students to receive college credit for courses taken each semester at SOTC. This credit may be applied toward an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree at Murray State College in Tishomingo or OSU-Institute of Technology in Okmulgee (these are two-year degree plans intended for direct workforce placement). While there will be $8 per credit hour fee for these courses, students will pay no tuition for these credit hours.
