About the University
University of Arkansas
The University of Arkansas boasts a tradition unique among the nation’s universities: Senior Walk, more than three miles of sidewalks crisscrossing the campus and engraved with the names of graduates dating back 140 years. It is evidence of U of A’s determination to make students its priority and create an environment perfect for learning.
This “students-first philosophy” nurtured alumni such as US President Bill Clinton, successful best-selling author Charles Portis, and a cornucopia of sports stars.
Fayetteville, Arkansas, the home of the University of Arkansas, has made its name as the top college town in the United States; with its famous Southern hospitality alongside a vibrant art scene, the town is alive with activity, creativity, and innovation.
