Congratulations to Caroline Culpepper for winning a "You Can at Arkansas" Scholarship!
Every fall, the UofA Office of Admissions runs a campaign called “You Can At Arkansas”. They send out a series of emails explaining how students can connect with academic programs, student life opportunities, funding, and more. They also enter all applicants into a drawing for one of thirty $3,000 scholarships – half of which go to in-state students.
Please note that the "You Can At Arkansas" Scholarships are in addition to the merit-based scholarships that are awarded in mid-January and early March to students who submit a scholarship application.
