Oklahoma Resident Tuition and Fees: This approximate tuition is for students who need to take all course required for graduation with the Associate in Applied Science Degree.

OCCC ID cards are required to use the facilities including the test center and Keith Leftwich Memorial Library. The cost is a one time fee of $10.00. If card is lost, $10.00 will be required to make another ID card.
Book costs are approximate and will vary depending on location of purchase. Books will be an excellent resource throughout the career of the licensed PTA.
PTA student liability insurance: The student liability insurance must be paid annually each fall at the Bursar's office. The insurance will cover the student in lab and while on clinical rotation. The student will not participate without the insurance.
PTA Course Fees: This cost is used to provide the students with extra laboratory experiences during the specific coursework.
PTA Supplies: These supplies include lab supplies such as goniometers, reflex hammers, and gait belts. Additional supplies may not be required for all students such as scrubs or lab coats for clinical settings. The clinical facilities will notify the students if these items are required.
APTA-OPTA Dues: Joining the APTA is voluntary but strongly encouraged. The students will gain valuable resources such as publications, full-text articles online, employment searches, networking opportunities, and professional resources.
