Rules & Statutes

The Teachers' Retirement System of Oklahoma is a qualified defined benefit plan established in 1943 for the purpose of providing retirement allowances and other specified benefits for qualified persons employed by state-supported educational institutions. We have linked pertinent statutory provisions below.

The Teachers' Retirement System rules interpreting and applying Oklahoma statues, have been codified at Title 715 of the Oklahoma Administrative Code ("OAC"). The OAC is published by the Office of Administrative Rules, a department of the Secretary of State, and contains all official agency rules. The rules listed below, while not official, are identical to those filed for codification and contain, to the best of our ability, the most recent amendments to the rules.
