Students at Wright Career College in three states, including Oklahoma are wondering what's next after the school filed for bankruptcy and abruptly closed its campuses Friday. 

The Kansas-based company filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.  The petition to liquidate assets estimated liabilities of $1 million to $10 million.

Wright Career College said in an email to students late Thursday that "with our deepest regret" it no longer is able to continue operations.

The Tulsa campus is located at 4908 South Sheridan.

The five college campuses had roughly 3,000 students enrolled during the 2014-2015 fiscal year and in recent weeks stopped accepting new students.
