Academic Common Market

Elaine Bizzell Thompson Garden

The Academic Common Market (ACM) is an interstate agreement for sharing academic programs through an exchange of students across state lines. Students have access to selected programs not offered in their home states without having to pay out-of-state tuition. The Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), of which the University of Oklahoma is a member, coordinates the activities of the Academic Common Market.

Students are initially approved by their home state for an Academic Common Market non-resident tuition waiver. Interested students should contact the appropriate state coordinator listed below for initial application and qualification information.

OU degree programs included in the Academic Common Market are listed below. Questons concerning OU's participation in the Academic Common Market should be addressed to the OU Office of Admissions, 127 Buchanan Hall, (405) 325-2252.
