Oklahoma eighth through 12th grade students now have access to updated informational materials to help them plan and prepare for a college education.
The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education recently produced 2025-26 editions of preparing for college brochures for middle, junior high and high school students statewide.
State Regents officials produced grade-specific digital brochures for eighth through 10th grade students and for 11th through 12th grade students. Both versions of “Your Plan for College” inform students about the courses they must take in high school to be admitted to an Oklahoma public college or university.
The online publications feature financial aid information, outline college admission standards, and encourage families to use OKcollegestart.org, the state’s comprehensive college planning and preparation portal for students, parents and school counselors. The publications also outline estimated college costs, salary expectations for various jobs and information about campus comparison and selection.
“Early planning for college is essential for long-term student success,” said Chancellor Sean Burrage. “These publications are useful resources for counselors and teachers to help students and parents prepare academically and financially for college, explore campus and degree options, and navigate the admission process.”
High school counselors also have online access to the 2025-26 “Counselors’ Resource Book: Oklahoma Colleges and Universities,” which provides information about preparing for college, course selection, college costs and financial aid, including grants and scholarships.
Students, parents, school counselors and teachers, home-school organizations, libraries, and educational, tribal and faith-based organizations can view, download and print the materials free of charge at https://okhighered.org/students/publications/.
