About This School

Rogers State University is a public institution located in Claremore, Oklahoma with approximately 2,657 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $15,314 per year. The graduation rate is 29%, and the typical graduate earns $39,300 within 10 years of enrollment.

Rogers State University (RSU) is a public university in Claremore, Oklahoma, United States. It also has branch campuses in Bartlesville and Pryor Creek.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at $13,953/year average net price and a low median debt of $11,250, RSU is genuinely affordable, and for students in the Claremore, Bartlesville, or Pryor Creek areas seeking a local, low-cost option, that matters. However, a 25% graduation rate is a serious red flag — meaning most students who start here don't finish — and the 64% freshman retention rate suggests many leave after year one. If you're considering RSU, go in with a clear plan and strong support system, because the odds of completing a degree here require real intention to beat.
