Oklahoma Presbyterian College, Historic Presbyterian school building in Durant, Oklahoma, USA

Oklahoma Presbyterian College is a three-story red-brick building with white stone trim at 601 N. 16th Street in Durant, Oklahoma. Built in 1909–1910 at a cost of $100,000, it measures 50 by 160 feet and served as both school and dormitory. A second, more modest three-story building, 32 by 80 feet, was added in 1918.

The main building was constructed in 1909–1910 of red brick with white stone trim at a cost of $100,000, serving as both school and dormitory. A second, more modest three-story building followed in 1918. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, the same year the buildings housed the Red River Valley Historical Society's headquarters and museum. From 1975 the main building served as the Choctaw Nation's administrative headquarters until the headquarters moved to a new building in 2018.

The main building was a combination school and dormitory for girls, built in 1909–1910 at a cost of $100,000. From 1975 the Choctaw Nation used it as its administrative headquarters, and after the 2018 move to a new building some Choctaw Nation employees remained. In 1976 the two buildings housed the Red River Valley Historical Society's headquarters and museum.

The two buildings stand at 601 N. 16th Street in Durant. Since the Choctaw Nation moved its headquarters in 2018, the main building is largely empty and only some employees remain, so there are no regular tours; view the red-brick exterior and white stone trim from the street.

The 1918 second building, more modest at 32 by 80 feet, joined the main hall on the National Register listing in 1976, when both served as headquarters and museum of the Red River Valley Historical Society. After 1975 the main building held the Choctaw Nation's administrative headquarters until the 2018 move to a new building; some tribal employees remain, though it is largely empty.
