The state has a wide variety of academic pathways, including several that are unique to Oklahoma. Dual credit is a high priority with a current focus on making sure that credit is transferable. There are also pilot initiatives to examine ways to increase the support provided to students while they are in dual credit classes. The OHLAP and EPAS programs are seen as very important. These programs are considered a promise by the government to the state's youth, and there is a high level of commitment to fully fund the scholarships attached to OHLAP.
