University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma and The First National Bank & Trust Co.

Founded in 1892, First National Bank & Trust Co. is Grady county’s oldest business enterprise. Equally noteworthy is the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma, founded in 1908. Together, these two institutions have demonstrated a true partnership for more than a century. With a strong belief in the value of higher education, FNBT has made supporting USAO a priority by sponsoring all the A’s – arts, athletics and academics. In recent years, the bank’s innovative Team Spirit Card has served USAO by providing a donation to the university each time the card is used. The bank also actively fosters real-world experience for current students through annual internship opportunities. Notably, over one dozen officers within the bank are proud USAO graduates, showcasing the strong relationship between these two institutions.
