Scholarships
Four out of five of our graduate business students receive some form of financial assistance, either through scholarships, graduate assistantships or company tuition-reimbursement. Talk with one of our advisers and let them show you just how affordable The University of Tulsa can be.
Program Flexibility
Whether you are interested in a full-time, part-time or online graduate business program, we have programs that fit your schedule and learning style. Your undergraduate degree can be from any field of study, and professional work experience is not always necessary.

Student Opportunities
Learning Beyond the Classroom
The Collins College of Business offers forums for learning beyond the classroom and networking with the community. Students are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities throughout their time on campus.
- GBSA – The Graduate Business Student Association provides networking and socializing opportunities for students as well as serving as a coordinating body for student teams participating in academic competitions.
- Friends of Finance – Friends of Finance is an organization of business professionals, TU alumni, and supporters of the TU College of Business Administration. Members share a passion for business–particularly finance and operations management–and are committed to helping TU gain national prominence in these areas.
- Mentor Program – Students and alumni in Graduate Business Programs are encouraged to participate in the Mentor Program. Each fall students are introduced to alumni who are professionals in an area of interest to the student. The mentor is then able to share experiences, advice, networking opportunities, etc. with the student. Students have opportunities throughout the year to meet high-level executives and gain industry insight that only professionals can offer. If you’re alumni wondering how you can give back, this is a great opportunity!
- GSA – GSA is a multipurpose organization designed to bring the graduate student community closer together. GSA hosts social and networking events to encourage interdisciplinary discussion between students, participates in community service events both on and off campus for community enrichment, teaches seminars on life skills, and promotes relationships between the undergraduate and graduate students by holding open events that allow undergraduates an opportunity to talk freely about graduate school.
- Love’s Cup Competition – The Love’s Entrepreneur’s Cup is a statewide undergraduate & graduate business plan competition designed to encourage students to act upon their ideas and talents in order to produce tomorrow’s businesses. This competition is aimed at simulating the real-world process of entrepreneurs creating a business plan to soliciting start-up funds from potential investors. Students involved in this competition gain access to networks of successful entrepreneurs, lenders and investors, team building opportunities, business planning skills, and media exposure.

Foundation Courses
Since many of our incoming Graduate Business students have conflicts with on-campus classes or work commitments, we decided this newly available online program might be the answer. Your book is included in and is the foundation of the course. You will read a chapter, complete assigned exercises and then take a quiz after each chapter. The average completion time for each foundation course is about 15-25 hours depending on the course and your background. Students must score 80% or better on the final 90-minute exam, so it pays to take a little time on the chapters.
Fully Accredited Programs
Our Graduate Business degree programs are all accredited by AACSB International – The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the highest standard of achievement for business schools.
